Image
I wonder if this image is PD? Most likely, from a SOE manual? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 22:05, 25 July 2012 (UTC)
- It might be. There are images of British and German coal bombs that I retrieved from a UK archive somewhere, I'll have to look up the licensing. However, might be Crown copyright, though. Thatcher 21:50, 30 July 2012 (UTC)
- See this document, it sounds like that image goes with that text, and is therefore found in the UK National Archives catalogued as HS 7/49. HS 7/49 is public domain. However, I can't actually view HS 7/49 online to verify this, the documents apparently aren't digitized so someone would need to go to the archives in Kew to look at them.

Explosive rats in 1880s
There are references to explosive rats in the 1880s after the American Civil War, discussed as means of destroying ships similar to a coal torpedo. I've never been clear on whether this meant an explosive-filled animal, or an explosive device given a nickname. I'll try and check my sources. Thatcher 21:50, 30 July 2012 (UTC)
