I think a HAT photograph is in Morton's book. If not, the picture--showing a HAT round on one of the rail launchers at the Woomera rangehead area, near where the Skylark tower launcher was--is in a photocopied WRE (Weapons Research Establishment) brochure; one of the now-deceased WRE sounding rocket researchers (it might have been Peter Twiss) sent me some old WRE material years ago. Peter Alway or Roy Houchin may now have it; I gave them both a lot of my old scale and historical material.
