Description: A demonstration of 'Fougasse', somewhere in Britain. A car is surrounded in flames and a huge cloud of smoke. In the foreground, a soldier can be seen running from left to right. The original MoI 'background story' caption for this sequence of photographs reads: More details are released today (3/6/45) about Britain's secret weapons against invasion. Pictures in this series show weapons developed by the Petroleum Warfare Department. A note on the negative bag indicates that these photographs were released "To tie with Minister of Information's Conference on June 3, 1945". It is probable that these photographs were actually taken in 1940.
