Default Grenade Hand Smoke C3

Dear All,

I am posting this in relation to how these may have been carried in CF vehicles and used.

I was lucky enough to acquire a total of 11 of these cans in various types.

I have 1 Blue / Violet 2 Green 1 Red 3 Yellow 4 no colour designated.

I am very interested to know and understand more about them and their use in the CF and were they issued in this form or were they a break bulk container?

I love the Blue / Violet designation, that made me laugh.

There is nothing to give me any clue as to date of manufacture.

The ones i have multiples of I might be interested in trading.

I am looking for 3 lids for the ones I don't have.
