Semple Tracer Fuze MK III

[bacarnal]

I was wondering if anyone had any information on this fuze. The closest I've come to it is the Mk 8 Mod 0, which was used in, what the 1 Pdr Common. Another book, OP 4, 1943, shows fuzes like this used in the 3 Pdr, 6 Pdr and the 3" Common. Does anyone have any US Navy WW I pubs? Cheers, Y'all, Bruce.

Alan, That Semple Tracer would probably be more akin to a picture that Gordon just sent me. Thanks, Bruce.
