An Interesting Martini

[Terrylee]

This worn Martini has been in my possession since 1973. It was recovered in Zululand about two years previously. Using modern technology, its regimental markings were enhanced in 2007. You can draw your own conclusions.

What a neat and interesting piece. "Recovered" in Zululand...

I'm sorry, all I see is chicken scratchings.

Sapper, have a look at the fourth photo. There you will see 80 over 464. Those who are familiar with regimental markings on British military Martinis will understand "Rifle No. 464, 80th Regiment". For further POSSIBLE leads, refer to a Zulu War history book.
