119. General

The German Army had a practice or training mine for the Tellermine 35, for the S-Mine 35, and for the concrete stake mine, the earliest standard German mines. Later standard German mines did not have any practice or training models.

120. Training Tellermine 35 (Übungs-Tellermine 35)

The training Tellermine 35 (fig. 150) is similar in appearance to the Tellermine 35 (par. 62), except that it has a red band and the letters Übs.T.Mi. 35 painted on the top. This mine is of heavier construction than its standard counterpart, the empty case weighing 19 pounds. High explosive is not used; the usual filing is a smoke powder.
