Canadian snow related equipment post WW2

Hi again

I know this little baby was mentioned.

Ahh the "lunar lander"; best stove for a Lynx Crewman. I say this with a number of years in all three crew positions behind me.

Lit easily enough and when the atomizer was hot enough, it produced a flame hard to have blown out. Sure went through a tank of fuel though. With the legs out, it fit nicely between the three hatch rings on the vehicle. While static, everyone turned inward and whatever was in the pot set was shared around a circle.

Usually it was the JAFO (just another effing observer) who tended it. And if we had to beetle off, turned it off and it just sat there while we went.

I found the later Peak Mountain Stove to be just a little too fragile but we had Coyotes by then so.... BV.

regards
Darrell
