A beautiful job on your Smoke Pot.  I have not seen any of those before up close. 

 

Who would be responsible for employing these in the field, Engineers?

 

Thanks for the post.

Thanks for the nice words guys, I agree something you dont see much of.  What I have read is they were used in training, marking airfields and in combat to obscure.  Got the second one done today might do a couple more.  It is interesting to see the different style handles from the various manufactures that made them, I may do a post showing the styles if there is eny interest.  Van over at Questmaster made the stencils for me.

Very cool and lots of dedication to make these. I have 2 real smoke pots in my collection. Will be selling one here in the future when time permits and I get a idea of value. I think I paid $300 or 350 for each years ago.
