Airfield finds over the years

Here's a few finds I've made over the past twenty years or so at my favourite airfield,and only a couple with a metal detector.
The stirrup pump was found by a friend last year,minus it's handle,so I made a new one and got it working again.The perimeter track light still had a working bulb when I found it,not bad after 40+ years underground! Don't know what the lockable brass tap is from,maybe a fuel tank? Can anyone shed any light on the items in last 5 pictures too?

PDMMs - VDV drop containers

Fellow Enthusiasts,

I am trying to get detailed information regarding the "PDMM"s aka drop containers used by the Soviet Airborne (VDV) during the GPW.

I am interested in both the soft and hard models.

I already have copies of Glantz's, Zaloga's and Thompson's books on the VDV as well as several internet articles but I am lacking this detail

Any help is greatly appreciated.


Sincerely,

Rob
