    John,

    I believe it is the side handle for a Royal Navy ALDIS lamp. The alternative is the side handle for the Royal Navy FRANCIS lamp. See what you think, its just ringing so many bells but can't be precise. I have seen it on ships or aircraft but can't be more accurate than that. Anymore numbers of makers buried under that piant?
