Does anyone have any idea what the glue was that sticks the fabric disc inside a WW2 2" para illumination bomb? This would be above the expelling charge for the flare pot. Thanks Tig.
Have you tried looking at the 2" mortar dws notes, they show sectional details of components of star shells and ilium. Gum Arabic would be a glue that comes to mind.
I just looked at my DWS Notes. They don't go into the detail of any glue used. " The main details of construction will be seen from the diagram opposite," is the wording used, and the diagram shows the components of the bomb.
