[FONT=&]German Unusual Wooden Mine from Greek Manual (Pandemic Repro)[/FONT]
[FONT=&]
[/FONT]
[FONT=&]With a lot of time on my hands, during the pandemic, I decided to make some reproduction German wooden mines. This one I found in a Greek Army Manual, that was posted here sometime in the past. It is made up of a Bohrpatrone 28 (Standard Bore Hole Charge) Z.Z 35 Fuze, Sprengkapselin No 8 Detonator, and Cork to hold in Charge. It also has a Anti-lifting Booby Trap device, which was a nail and wire. The Nail was buried under the mine and when the mine was lifted it would pull the pin from the Fuze, setting off the mine. It is shown in Plan I have attached, with the red box around it. The plan also seems to show a covering for the mine, too keep out dirt, I would think, I can’t read the Greek so I am only assuming that is what is shown. [/FONT]
