leaflet 29/S mine barrages in winter - 20.8.44 (2)
Hi, Gemini. as you can see on the pictures these mines where laid in rows with a space of 5m between each bottle. the first mine was to detonate with a Glhzndstck 28 and the others followed due to the blast of the first one.
For this purpose the Flascheneisminenznder wasn't necessary. This device is a simple pressure fuze; after breaking the shear wire pressure was enough to hit the percussion cap without any spring.
sorry for confusing you, gemini, I only would give you an overall view :tinysmile_shy_t:
the fuze is too simple and therefore not further mentioned in the leaflet above, except how to insert (page 005, left on top).
this one is mine, not very impressive, isn't it?
