Default Canadian Mk. 1 Manual

This came via. Jon Skagfeldt at the Action OMVA meet yesterday. Jon, it was worth the begging you forced upon me to finally acquire this!!

Default It appears printed September, 1941

It depicts carriers with really early features. Note the location of the air cleaner and the hood on the fuel pump.

Default Stowage

It lists where kit is to be stowed that doesn't appear in later manuals. This is what it says about that spare mag pouch, where the smoke discharger is to be kept and how the cable is run.

I don't see where it mentions the spare mag pouch....I see where it talks about stowing a chest of mags in the box on the left guard.
By the way, I received the origional mag pouch yesterday Bruce...Hopefully I will have a chance to start on the copies this week.

Default Item AA on page 119

...and as to you Mr. Baker, I note that my humbling experience with Mr. Skagfeldt was only marginally more humiliating than what it took to acquire this other Mk.1 manual:
