917601 Posted December 30, 2019 Share #2 Posted December 30, 2019 Do search in this forum for M38 practice bomb. I recall a few posts with WW2 dated bombs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Flick Posted December 30, 2019 Share #3 Posted December 30, 2019 Hello Bertrand: I am not familiar with the T-29 you mentioned. However, if you want to restore your M38A2 practice bomb to the original markings, the image below from the Raritan Arsenal will give you the details.

mb399579 Posted December 31, 2019 Author Share #4 Posted December 31, 2019 Hello, Thanks for your reply. The T29 I mentionned is illustrated here : https://bulletpicker.com/bomb_-100-lb-smoke_-t29.html As I removed the green paint on my bomb, I find OD paint on the body and a blue paint remains on the tail like the picture Charlie has posted. So I think, I will restored it like the picture. Is somebody know the size of the markings ? Bertrand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
