Hello,

I found a "Signal, Aircraft, Red Star, Cluster M14" and I'm looking for documentation on it and the series.
I only have informations on Signal Red Star Parachute M11.
Thanks.

Regards

It's the first time that I read about a M15 White Star Blinker and M16 Green Star Blinker. I would very much like to know the composition of those pyrotechnic stars. In german Blinker is Strobe in english. Strobe stars are a post WW 2 pyro composition. Does anyone know what type of effect this M15 and M16 pyro cartridges had ?
regards,

Well, there's this:
M14 Signal, Aircraft, Red Star Cluster - Considered limited standard by 1944, only the M11 was the remaining standard issue signal.

From this Pub.: http://docslide.us/documents/m8-pyrotechnic-pistol-ammunition.html

None of my other books/manuals even reference the M14. Now I'll have to go look to see if I have one in the assemblage.
