Gas alert rattle, England, 1917 |
||
| Description |
To give troops time to put on any protective clothing during gas attacks, this rattle would have been used to give a loud warning – although even this rattle’s noise may not have been heard over the noise of battle. Gas warfare was first used by the German Army in 1915 – although quite quickly it became a weapon used by all sides. The gases varied in their effects, but ‘Mustard gas’, which caused blindness and burns to the skin, was particularly feared. maker: M Bros Place made: England, United Kingdom Wellcome Images |
