A small West Country arms firm has produced one million trench mortar bombs so quickly
A small West Country arms firm has produced one million trench mortar bombs so quickly that they have received a Ministry of Supply telegram of congratulation and, as a reward, had a trip to the range to see their work in action.
Separate trips
were made by two shifts and the soldier hosts conveyed their guests to the demonstration in Bren-gun Carriers.
Picture shows: A soldier drops the bomb in the mortar and some of the girls cover their ears.. They are not afraid of making the bombs but are afraid of the noise it makes,
