A big hello to all my fellow collectors,
It has been a long time since I have been on this forum. Many things have happened since then. My collection was slowly filling up all available space at home and had very little options left. I had to let go of it all. Fortunately it all went to good homes.
I still have most of my reference material though and am making sure that as much of it is scanned and transformed into PDF's as possible.
So here we are with a series of 4 PDF files of in house WWII training manuals from the Picatinny Arsenal;
PICATINNY ARSENAL LOADING PLANT COURSE 1940
http://www.bocn.co.uk/vbforum/downloads.php?do=file&id=1007
PICATINNY ARSENAL TENTATIVE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE INSPECTION & ASSEMBLY OF THE FOLLOWING FUZES; Artillery & Mortar Fuzes M-48 M-51 M-52 M-53 M-54 M-55 M-56 Bomb Fuzes M-103 M-106 and Boosters M-20 M-21

PICATINNY ARSENAL FUZE LOADING MANUAL 1941
http://www.bocn.co.uk/vbforum/downloads.php?do=file&id=1005
ORDNANCE SCHOOL PICATINNY ARSENAL COURSE II 1940
http://www.bocn.co.uk/vbforum/downloads.php?do=file&id=1004
The Picatinny Arsenal was a U.S Army loading plant. These manuals give a very detailed in depth overview of the general organisation and operation of the arsenal in respects to Fuzes and Artillery Ammunition as well as their assembly inspection and loading processes.
I hope that these manuals will help to give you all a bit of background to the story and processes behind those US WWII fuzes and artillery projectiles within your collections.
I am recovering from a bilateral knee replacement so hopefully I will have time to produce some more interesting PDF files within the next few months.
Cheers,
Robert
