Did it have sparklies? I knew it was an explosive.
![]() You know, like even a molotov cocktail has sparklies of a sort. Well, it's fire dripping burning rag, but I think we can count it as a sparklie. I count it as a sparklie anyway. Or was it a hand grenade? THAT doesn't count. Not in and of itself. Maybe depending on the object being blown up, that might produce sparklies, but that's not the same. |

Plus, IIRC, a Molotov Cocktail in addition to having an accelerant, usually has something akin to liquid soap mixed in its concoction, yes to confirm I did a Google search on what the history and makeup of a Molotov Cocktail is. I have in my sorted past "observed" such device at a pretty close range..although where I came from they were known as a Wake-up Call |

We learned how to make Molotov cocktails in the army, as an improvised anti-tank measure in the field. And yes, we mixed some powdered gel-like substance into the petrol, to make the burning fluid stick better to the target. Aim just below the gun turret of the tank and you're in business, while the tank is not. At least that was the plan according to our instructors.. ![]() ![]() or would something common as hair gel work too? |
