This is some stuff from an old Army/Airforce firing range from the 1940s and 1950s. Does anyone recognize what any of this stuff is? I found all of this stuff in an area where the Army was training men to use the 20 mm anti-aircraft gun (cannon), as Ive found a fired 20 mm shell and several crushed ammo boxes that say they 20 mm on them. Could these have been the pins for securing a barrel cap or something? The little round metal thing says "Cannon" and has some numbers on it. And the little glass thing looks like an electrical insulator to me. Maybe from a radio or something. Ive found two of them. The one in the photo has a small "12" on the top and the other says "42" or "43" or something. Please let me know what you think. Thanks

Maybe because I uploaded them, but I dont know. Computers arent exactly my thing.

Im not sure what you mean.

We cant see some of your pictures even if we clic on it. If we (myself and SkaBa) clic on it, it says invalid. It looks like this:

But its not your fault as it happens to me sometimes too. Pictures disappear. I have reported this issue to Treasurenet years ago and the moderator suggested to re-post the pictures whenever this happens. They didnt seem to think disappearing attachments was a problem and i dont see anybody else complaining so I dont know what else to say.

You dont need to re-post them because you said they are just like the others. So dont worry about it.
