Does anyone have pictures of the smoke charge used in these practice mines? I have seen one, a long time ago, but am looking for some good pictures for the EOD publication.

I remember the smoke mixture staining my fingers yellow pretty good, 4not sure what the dye was but it was strong.

Hi Joe,
since I'am now in Europe I don't have an access to the smoke charge, if nobody has photos by that time , I can provide them when I'am back in the US end of June.

A couple of pictures, not very good but it's all I have.
In both immages the item is indicated with number 4.

Regards
