  1. Have this, no description or numbers any where, some one suggested I open it which I did, as can be seen full of silicone.

    Can my learned friends help, another suggestion was its RAF, can in a bag with NP67AA on it, last issue maybe?

    Thanks in advance

    that's what it says in the first post's news article

    Please don't take this the wrong way, years ago I went to watch a musical set about Georgian times, one song had the chorus "it must be true, I read it in the papers didn't you".

    As a former Investigator for professional body I always look for additional evidence

    The legs are the same as the standard fold up table, you know, the type that just want to trap every finger on both hands for no reason.

    Yes I remember, almost as it had a mind of its own

    A message pad, a pad of logsheets for the watchkeeper to record events and messages.  The used ones would be held on bulldog clips pinned up somewhere, 

    Many thanks, I have some old message pads that i can copy, not sure if a particular pattern for the log sheet

  5. Trying to set the table up, I understand that it would have the following,

    "There would be a map of the area of operations, a radio net diagram, a stag list, fuel states of the wagon and the generator, last time the wagon was started. Grid of the CP, grids of sub units"

     

    Does anyone have copies of these, I do have the maps.

     

    Also any pictures of how it would be laid out?

     

    Thanks in advance

    The axe heads seems to be a 'Hudson Bay' type  (these are of French origin) the North Americans seem to go for this style more than the light  Scandinavian forest axe style, German /Austrian forest  axe style such as by Muller is again different..    The entrenching tools - you don't have the universal heft , they look a bit Mittel Europe  ?

    Thanks, bought it from Witham and was thinking of either to use or part of a display, hence asking for information,

    In daylight will have another look, it was sold as unissued 

    Will see if NSN number on anything.
