Photos are attached of inner containers for the UK hand fired parachute flare. The outer pack was a large, square, brown painted wooden box and it contained four of these plastic, screw top containers. Each inner container held 12 rockets, so 48 rockets in total in an outer container. I used these two as washing machines after the first Gulf war in 1991. The `EXOG' sticker means `Ex Operation Granby', (Granby being the UK title for operations in that war). If `EXOG' was in red, it denoted that ammo/pallets bearing that type of sticker was to be returned to one particular location and if it were blue, to a different location, both in UK. If I remember correctly, EXOG in black meant that the ammo was to be returned to storage in British depots in Germany.
