Hey everyone,

Once again I have an item that eludes my study. Due to the marking on the shoulder, I know it is a Fuze Bomb ADZ with four arming vanes on a stem that detaches from thwe fuze body in windstream. I do not, however, know what bombs the fuze was used on or what it's filling was. Any ideas or publications?
