    Default Not a Military Medical Thermometer ?

    Hi Guys,
    I picked this up thinking it was marked with a broad arrow but only now do I realise it is an arrow pointing to the correct body temperature

    Fahrenheit has always been lost on me !

    It is manufactured by 'The Medical Supply Association LTD' which could be period correct but I have found no other British military thermometers to compare.

    Does anybody have any info on how a RAMC thermometer should look ?

    Hey! We Still can't do the conversions in our heads! Don't know How you Centigrade guys do it! (but then again, we've never figured out why you drive on the wrong side of the road either...)

    It's rectal. Seriously.

    Neds speaking for DEEP seated experience on this one I think.

    Your turn next Michael, don't worry, I'll blow on my hands first and the prostate massage is a wonderful added bonus.

    I knew you were going to say that. You've taken it rather well I must say.
