Booby Traps

BOOBY TRAPS. A booby trap can be an explosive charge, a nonexplosive device, or other material. Its intended use is to incapacitate, wound, or kill an unsuspecting person when he disturbs an apparently harmless object or performs a presumably safe act. Two types are in use: improvised and manufactured. Improvised booby traps are constructed from standard firing devices, explosives, weapons, missiles, or other materials generally used for other purposes. They are placed wherever enemy troops are likely to assemble or pass, such as in buildings, shelters, minefields, fords, around obstacles, and along paths, roads, and bridges. Improvised booby traps are often attached to some object that can be used or that has souvenir appeal. Manufactured booby traps are standard devices made at a factory. They are useful objects, such as pipes, books, or bottled drinks, that explode when picked up or used. When left scattered about by a retreating force, they inflict casualties and cause confusion among advancing enemy troops.
