SGT George Youngman of the 167th Ordnance Bomb Disposal Squadron brought home this German Flare gun. Thanks to my friend Matt for finding all this information on George. Its always nice to have a picture of the vet. I'm still trying to find out more information on the 167th. I'm happy to add this cool pistol to my bring back collection!

Very Nice! Not only the Leuchtpistole 42, you have the holster and the illusive cleaning rod!

And it has the capture tag, WOW! The maker code, “wa” is for Hugo Schneider. The holster, marked “fug” is for Cottbusser Lederwarenwerk.

Excellent find,

Thanks for posting it.
