A GENUINE WAR TROPHY

soon as the grenade left the hand the
spoon" flew off, releasing the firing
mechanism.
This grenade is the modern sue
cessor of the first TASKS filled with
gun powder which were used in 1927
in the defense of Casalmoggiore. From
that time until the eighteenth century
all armies experimental with various
forms of grenades made of heavy
glass or metal.
During the reign of Louis XIV. in
France. the picked corps Of soldiers
assigned to the dangerous and difficult
task of handling the grenade in bat
tie acquired the distinctive title of
grenadlers, from the "grenariere" a
large pocket in which they carried
their weapon. During the Napoleonic
wars the grenade fell into disuse, but
Napoleon's Grenadiers of the Guard
were his bravest and most faithful
soldiers. The title of Grenadiers was
perpetuated in the names of many

The grenade was revived during
the 10Th century. Its real revival.
however, came with the siege of Port
Arthur, in 1904, and every army
was experimenting with the grenade
when the trench warfare in the great
world war forced it into action in
earnest. Grenades of all kinds were
developed among the British, French
and German armies, but the most
effective was the British form, the
Mills hand grenade which the aver
age soldier could throw 100 feet of
more from a trench, The hand bomb
bormed the basis for the American

been directed against the trenches of
waste.
