Title: gas attack grogger
Post by: s.e.charles on August 25, 2021, 11:36:59 PM

could anyone share information regarding this alarm system "in the trenches?"

and how it might be modeled in 1:32/ 35 scale

yes; i understand it's not technically an aviation device, but more of an ancillary piece of kit!

thanks

Hi,

It looks much like this child's toy.

I wouldn't know what the function of the handle/knob at the end is.

They also used to be very common at football* matches where thousands of fans would have them
