Disparaging names would certainly come naturally in the circumstances you mention Dianaa. Also in an incident related to me by a workmate who had been with the BAOR. They were undergoing training on the PIAT and when one of the fellows fired the weapon a chunk of the spring steel disc that locates and secures the bomb in the tray came back and opened up his face so as you could see his teeth through his cheek. As a couple of fellows helped him away the NCO in charge of the training simply called out 'NEXT'!

To get back on topic, if looking for a box to hide some batteries in it may help to simply give the dimensions of what you need and see what pops up. Does it matter if the box has been repainted? Do you want it with stencilling? You just don't know what's out there. 2pdr, 25pdr, .303, 3.7" We've all got some and a lot of us will be at Corowa. (Except Mike)
