British Army Smoke Grenade Query

[ClintHardware]

Hi All

I keep coming across 1941 war diary references to "Bombs, S T" being issued to infantry. Is this a reference to a Smoke bomb/Smoke Grenade?

Does the S stand for Smoke?

And, what does the T stand for?

Thanks in advance

I think this is what you are referencing: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sticky_bomb

I think you must be right. After posting I found references at Kew about Sticky Bombs carried on a patrol with the 1st KRRC

Thanks for your help
