Robert
Might I suggest the Corbin Canada padlocks that Dirk Leegwater has available from LWD parts. A little pricey at 20 Euro each, but totally authentic. He has some that are keyed alike, although I think I ended up with 2 or 3 different keys in the set I bought for my carrier. Although the military had a real habit of going through padlocks like drinking water, I was still finding a few of these kicking arond even in the late 80s. |

Hey Jordan,
I've got all the gear in your list and picture assembled. Not showing the vehicle mounting brackets because they are on the vehicle ! Thanks again Jordan for the great reference ! Happy New Year.

Here is my Metalic CPP-2 power converter on the floor under the temporary wireless table .
It converts 120 to 12/24 Volts for the 19 Set. Bruce Parker has a nice post on this piece of kit on his week 45 chronicle. Thanks Bruce and Happy New Year !.

Friends , this is my last post of the year and i would like to solve a mystery that's been bugging me for too long.
What are these connexions for please ? Picture on the left is outside the left side of the box. Picture on the right is inside the box below the telephone operator / cipher clerk position table . Any definite answer out there with pictures and a reference please ? 12 V power outlet for the Wireless 19 or telephone connection for field phones ? Let's resolve this before year end please !

They're far too heavy-duty to be telephone. They look very much like the studs/nuts and insulator on the Batten, Terminal, 4-Way, and the fact that they have wing nuts on both sides make it an "optional" feed-through, probably for power to the Penthouse when that's set up.
When using the penthouse, run a pair of suitable cables from the charging switchboard No.4 to the terminals on the inside, then connect penthouse lighting and/or another wireless set, etc. to the terminals on the outside. (I'd expect the external cover to have a layer of insulation attached to the inside of the lid - it would be rather exciting if it came into contact with the terminals when the battery was connected.) Best regards (and a happy and prosperous New Year), Chris. |

Many thanks Chris and a very happy New Year to you also.
I think you are right on and the connexions are for DC to power the wireless sets installed outside.. I misspoke when i said it would be my last question for the year. I have been using the spare parts box in the picture over the last year to store ... my spare parts for the No 19 in the wire 5 truck. Last question of the year, promise : What is a No 33 set anyway and what was it used for ?

Alex, the 4th Canadian AD and Polish 1st AD were in Bergen Op Zoom, I don't think the Canadians had their Crusader AA's this late, this picture was probably 1st PAD, and or some vehicles from 4th Canadian AD, there are a few pictures of 1st PAD in Bergen, I might be confused, but thought that one was 1st PAD. Unless 4th CAD kept their Crusader AA's, the Canadians did have a few in Normandy, but I don't know if they kept them post Normandy.
