"No5 Bayonet Frog"

[Peter Laidler]

Stores Ref. A1/AA 1819 Tabs, securing bayonet
Stores Ref. B2/AA 1819 Tabs, securing bayonet
Stores Ref. B1/AA 1819 Tabs, securing, Bayonet, No. 4, Mk.I
Stores Ref. B1/1005-99-961-9514 Tabs, securing, Bayonet, No. 4, Mk.I

Re the above. His understanding of why it only refers to the No4 Mk1 bayonet is incorrect. The Mk1 part refers to the Mk/type of TAB. So it actually describes:
the Mk1 B1/AA1819 TAB used to secure the No4 bayonet
as opposed to the two top nomenclatures that wrongly describe the loop as securing 'a bayonet' - what bayonet!

It's like BOX, securing, transit, Sten x10, Mk1. It's not a box for shipping 10 Mk1 Stens, it's the Mk1 box used for shipping 10 stens of any type!

Maybe you could tell/.explain this to him Tom. One of the lessons learned from being an old, long time Armourer within the system and of how the QM's system works
