As Colin says, in civvy parlance, they are "fence posts", with the curly bits every foot to hold a strand of wire. The same concept is still used with modern rural fencing.

That's a nice early mk1 carrier done the way I like to see them. He does have the antenna hook pointing the wrong way though.
I was on the look for a bunch of those early barb wire pickets a couple years ago. There were still a couple at the local scrapyard. |

interesting, never seen them before. And yes, whoever set up that carrier did a real nice job. The squeaky clean ones don't look right.
