I know the big naval guns used black powder....I know the British used cordite.... whenever I read a WWII story there is always a reference to the smell of cordite. I just finished "The Last Lieutenant" and again the obligatory references to cordite. Just like after a 4th of July fireworks display, the smell of blackpowder hangs in the air
Did we use cordite or would the statement be more correct to say gunpowder?
