Anyone know what these strange Luftwaffe objects are?
These strange items sold on ebay recently.
They are from a UK schoolboy's Blitz shrapnel collection - but what are they? The lettering 'B2' appears on the cylinder object with a slot in the top - the B2.2 was a type of Luftwaffe incendiary bomb, but it bears no resemblance to this ordnance. The items sold for a whopping £124.00 - so someone clearly knows what they are. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WW2-Luftw...rdt=true&rt=nc |

B or E ?
The letter painted in white on the cylinder could be an ugly E.
Have a close look maybe. |

Re: Anyone know what these strange Luftwaffe objects are?
The can has what appears to be a "pull-off" top, so a one time use item. Perhaps an item from a survival kit? Are we positive that its even Luftwaffe related?
Could be anything from a can of beer, a can of oil or anything else in between. |
