german propanganda rocket.

[waffenamt]

This is a nice item i picked up recently. Im told by my good pal Madbomber that it is a propaganda rocket. Im aware that it is not the original cap,so if anyone can help find one for me plus copies(or original!) leaflets to put inside it then happy days!!
According to my manual,this item was made by Bremshy & Co.,Solingen-Ohlings (bgj)in 1943.
Fully unscrews and inert.

Waff,
Very good find!! The Propaganda Geschoss 41 (PrGs 41) was very effective German weapon. Regarding leaflets disseminated from similar rockets and more info on the rocket, please check out the propaganda leaflet website of Dr. Klaus Kirchner at http://www.propaganda-leaflets.com/p...gandainwar.pdf.
He has an extraordinary collection of leaflets. Please note in his pictures of the rocket the spring pin that was used to encourage the leaflet rolls to unfurl once ejected. Have you seen a picture of the metal frame used for launching the rockets?
My interests are specifically with any means of disseminating propaganda leaflets (bombs, rockets, mortars, grenades, etc).
best regards,
Doug

Waff,

I meant to ask, what is the manual you refer to in your original post?

regards,

Hi Doug,
It is the german ordnance code book by Karl R Pawlas.
