19th July 2002Ammunition box labels
By Chris Tapster
I'm making up repro 450/770 ammunition boxes as used in the Zulu War but don't have details of the size or wording of the labels on the wooden boxes and the packages of rounds inside. I'd be eternally grateful if anyone can provide information on this. Many thanks.

From what I've seen of the Mk.V boxes, they have the words "For Natal" stamped in military-style capitals on their sides.

Regards,
George
