Need help identifying this wooden military box!

[grant580]

Hope this is the correct fourm, so here goes. I recently came across this old wooden box at a good friend of mine's shop and he has no idea what it's for. I have attached a few pictures so if anyone knows what it is or can share any info we would be grateful.

Vehicle transport box for Mark IX* * * Discharger Cup Pistols?

(What anyone not British would call the smoke discharger pots on a Tank or APC?)

Very interesting artifact. First I have ever seen, anyway.

Thank you.
