Title

German 'Schu' Mine

Description

German 'Schu' Mine used in the Italian campaign of 1944, captured by the 6th Bn Seaforth Highlanders. These small anti-personnel mines were particularly dangerous as their wooden casing made them impossible to detect using a magnetic min detector. The box contained a 200 g block of explosive, enough to cause a serious wound rather than to kill outright. Part of the Highlander’s Museum collection (Queen’s Own Highlanders Collection).
