Possible SOE Hand Generator

[garys39]

Found this item, this morning, at the local antiques centre, hidden amongst a load of old tools, I could see it's green paint and it's military connection, so I bought it. I've stripped off it's post war wooden housing to reveal the following.

Sounds like a lovely job for the low man on the squad totem pole! 'You, Private, recharge these batteries. If you're not done by mess call, come back later to finish.'

A good find, however this is the Generator No2 that is associated with SOE use.

Oooh, close but no cigar.

However, nice piece which with a little jiggery-pokery would not take much to make it look more like the SOE version.
