German Fire Sprayer Trophy Described By War Reporter
A British reporter describes a captured German flamethrower trophy from Hoge on August 9. It includes a nitrogen-pressurized cylinder, rubber hose, and a nozzle firing flame up to 20 yards, with detailed workings and a curt wartime verdict on its use. The piece also covers naval action at Valparaiso and Falkland Islands, including the sinking of the Monmouth and the Leipzig crew accounts.
