NotesThe Lance Grenades De 50mm DBT was the standard light platoon mortar used by the Belgian army. I was designed and built by the Belgian firm DBT (Denis Bertrand and Trois) and was used in the infantry support to fire small fragmentation grenades. I was issued to rifle platoons located in infantry companies
