Freshly removed from the 1000lbs GP. Any interpretation of the markings is appreciated!

Hi al'saad,

sorry, but I don't find a concordance for LECCO.

Probably the manufacturer forgot a few full stops .... "L.E.C.CO.", that means "Lake Erie Chemical Company", Cleveland, Ohio; a Smith&Wesson subsidiary.

Land-Lease supply.

Can't find Lake Erie in MIL-HDBK-1461 and MIL-HDBK-1461A...

Yesterday we RSPd another 1000 pdr with 28 pistol and .025 sec det found 20 meters from the first one, but on this fuze there was no stamps. I will post some more detailed photos of it tomorrow. Must say that second fuze was fully operational with striker moving easily in the fuze body.

yesterday we did the third bomb on the location. all three were in straight line on 25m distance from each other. here are photos of the third pistol and fuze with some markings.

Detonator filled and more than likely made by ICI/A - ICI Ardeer, Scotland.
