Mine Carrier

Hi to all -

Can anyone work out the 7-figure Polish WD No on the carrier. It should start 129....

My eyes are not what they used to be !

Excuse my ignorance, but don't those mines go off when those little spike things contact something? Looks like a dangerous job!

They probably had a hell of a time getting the Poles to give up the mine. They probably wanted to drag right across the Channel and stuff it up the Scharnhorst's hawse pipe!
