SOME OTHER FUSES AND ACCESSORIES
|
|
I cannot consider those small and apparently innoffensive objects without thinking that the life or death of so many poor soldiers under deadly shell showers was dependant of their 'good' operation...
This selection is rather small, but those pieces are fascinating me...
Warning : Artillery fuses are active components, whose role is to detonate an explosive charge. They did not forgot that mission....
Never touch a fuse that would still be attached to a shell, or still accompanied with a detonator. The army specialists themselves, in charge with the removing of the ancient weapons from the former battlefields, are not taking this kind of risk, preferring to burst those dangerous pieces with an explosion.
A picture is by far less dangerous...
