I bet its to hold those funny little tubes he is putting in the nose of the shells!

The Pathe clip is not one continuous take. Consider each break to be a different date and/or location. Pathe were given this footage free during the war and they had access to the original raw footage. It appears that some of it has had the cameraman and date chalkboard clipped out and then randomly spliced with other footage. The footage I linked is for sure all from around the time of Goodwood (18-20 July 1944) but it is not to be assumed it is all from the same source.

I know for certain it is not part of the IWM Museum film collection so it must be Canadian. Same with the still photo. It is not in the IWM B collection so it too must be Canadian. The film and still cameramen usualy worked in pairs so that is why the often covered the same things.
