Again, sorry for the poor photo, I did not feel like digging these out\
IN front of the WW1 Canadian 18 pounder box is a black Rocket type thing

The rocket was a one of a kind made in very late 1943 or early 1944 for cutting through armour, however it was to late in the war to develope new guns ect

This came from the engineers familiy along with 2 exp, armour piercing rounds, again not put into production. BOth items I find very interesting, perhaps sometime I will photo the 2 other rounds.

Hi Dean,
Always interested in seeing 18pr rounds, of any period. Like the box as well . It would be great to see some better pictures of it if you manage to dig it out.
Cheers
Gary
