Type 73 anti-tank hand grenade Mk 1 was used in Operation Anthropoid - the code name for the assassination attempt on SS- Obergruppenführer and General der Polizei Reinhard Heydrich , the Nazi Germany Deputy Reichsprotektor of the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. Original of this bomb is here - [1]
Incorrect name!
The correct name for the grenade is No 73 Mark 1, not simply Mk 1. Its official name in British service was "Grenade, Hand, Anti-tank No. 73", and Mk 1 is only one of the modifications - there could be No 73 Mk 2, for example (don't know if it was but it could be). GMS 10:39, 5 April 2012 (CDT)
