[h=2]8cm Leucht Wgr + Fuze/Zünder (?)[/h] Hi,

In attachment, 8cm Wgr / Mortar

Apparantly this one was also used by German troops during ww2 , but cannot confirm the origin of it / correct name for it.

(For both the Mortar and the Fuze)

This is a "8cm Wurfleuchtgeschoss 4447" or "8cm Wurfpropagandageschoss".
The Fuze is not a Fuze it is the Propelling Charge.
