Arsenal is defined as having a surplus of weapon'
s that is in someones possession. There can be a variety of weapon's in these arsenals. In this instance this
arsenal is was a unique one used back in 1886 which was made of manure. These
people also called "gunners" would take the manure and
stuff a canvas bag (referred as the mouth) as full as they could then tie the
top leaving a small hole so they could pack it more just to where it was oozing out of the mouth. They would then take a tiny explosive and inserted it into the mouth. Reports have been made that the men found this to be very funny looking and said it reminded them of something inappropriate I won't name it specifically. They would then light the explosive and with a specially made catapult launch it at the opposing forces. Some men continued the practice after their duty ended.
