[CW] WWII Type "Russian Bug" - Semiautomatic key with cootie dasher.

[David J. J. Ring, Jr.]

In the "Great Patriotic War" / Also known as "World War II", elite 
Soviet radiotelegraphers used a special modified semiautomatic key.

I call it the "Russian Bug with Cootie Dasher".

It is an interesting key!

Videos from two "Russian Bug" type key operators.
