Hi Madbomber,

what you have there is the "Charge demolition No 2 Mk 1 General Wade". I must have everywhere a pic of this with his special detonator, let me the time to find it.
Don't ask me "who is general Wade", we were not presented !
 
General Wade

Here are the pics. This charge could be used as shaped cutting charge or as pressure charge. Several charges could be used simultaneously.
