I wonder if anyone can point me to any solid evidence of rocket
assisted launching of gliders by the British or others.

I recall being told that the L13 was originally intended to have rocket
launch as an option, but in a ten-minute Google search I can't find any
actual evidence. Perhaps someone else can pick up on this.
