My cousin is a museum curator and currently
is assigned as a consultant for the artifacts in the Governor Generals house.
He would treasure the contents of the artifacts box and give you the
significance of each item. The cap in the box was worn by a high ranking
officer.I wish my cousin was with me when we saw the artifact as he would be
able to provide much greater detail about the item and it’s significance.
Barbed wire was used in trench warfare to slow the enemy down during an
invasion. It was set up in patterns that
could not be easily distinguished and the invaders would get caught in it and
could not easily escape. The rattler in
the box was used to alert men in the trench that gas had been released so that
they would quickly put on their gas masks
to protect themselves.
