Number 1 looks like a smoke grenade, Number is a smoke grenade, and Number 3 is a strobe light used to signal aircraft

Hi EP,

Number 1 is a "Willie Pete" grenade or M34 White Phosphorus Smoke Grenade.

Number 2 is an Albumin/Blood Expander Can and the one near with the white color is a smoke grenade.

Number 3 is a Strobe Light as DJ Judge said.

Best regards,
Angel

Nicely painted figure Pong, what did you do to the soles of the boots or have you replaced the originals?

While #1 is a WP grenade (great for breaking contact), and #3 is a strobe light, #2 is NOT an albumin can, which is pretty much the exact diameter as a smoke grenade (like a soda can). #2 is actually a trip flare.

Do a google image search of Vietnam trip flare and you'll see some pics.

Early DML set 3303 LRRP, they also did a few other good NAM sets of SEAL, MACV-SOG, Green Berets, Marines, Aircav, VC and an excellent weapons set
