This is a spare grenade like the one that was thrown at me. It ripped fragments through my right fender and threw shrapnel and upholstery fibers into Heydrich's torso. He got out his pistol to try and pursue the men but returned to my side and collapsed. He was hospitalized but this is what would later kill him, pieces of my own body!!!
These are British pencil fuses like ones the assassins carried with them as extra gunpower They were never used because it takes full fledged grenades to even injure the mighty Heydrich!
The team of men were equipped with a LOT of weapons. The parachuters brought with them two pistols (38 Colt) with four spare magazines and one hundred bullets, one Sten. Mk.II machine gun with one hundred bullets, two model Mills grenades, two armor-piercing bombs filled with plastic explosives, a separate thirty two pounds of plastic explosives, one Tree Spigot bomb launcher with one bomb, four smoke bombs, two magazines of fuses, four electric fuses, two yards of fuse rope, three timing pencils, and a reel of steel thread.
