Men of the Royal Engineers in North Africa demonstrate the use of a mine detector (August 1942)Mine Detectors being assembled (1943)
The Mine detector (Polish) Mark I (Polish: wykrywacz min) was a metal detector for landmines developed during World War II. Initial work on the design had started in Poland but after the invasion of Poland by the Germans in 1939, and then the Fall of France in mid-1940, it was not until the winter of 1941–1942 that work was completed by Polish lieutenant Józef Kosacki.[1][2]
