Crabtree Discharger WW2 BOMB DISPOSAL

Battle of Britian. EOD.
The Crabtree discharger was a device that was clamped onto a German bomb fuze boss, it depressed the charging-plungers & allowed the electric charge from the fuze to short-circuit until the condensers were discharged rendering the bomb relatively safe. A piece of string could then be tied around the "crabtree" enabling the Bomb Disposal engineer to pull the fuze from the fuze pocket at a safe distance.
