Mills grenade det tin scan and triangle?

[natocollector]

Hi

Anyone got a hi res scan/photo of the label on the lid of the tin can for the Mills dets?

What are the triangle on the left used for?

Regards.

The tin 'triangle' is a separator that fitted between the three dets.

That's a great picture but being a pedant, (and also hijacking Natocollectors post) that tin is Indian.... Also I think what Natocollector wants is a square on shot of the label so he can copy it and stick it on his tin.
Sorry for my interruption,
Cheers
