Thanks guys for the kind words and I tip my hat to all of the regular posters in this thread. And of course to all the outstanding photographers.

I don't know if he has h-res but for a higher resolution right click and select view image. Enjoy!
I cant believe that this is a military photos website and the 'blue box' has not been correctly identified still after 4 replies?
Its a simple timer used on a shooting range for timed competitions, it beeps once at random to start the event and it 'listens' for your shots, as you progress through the event shooting at targets it records the time of your 'last' shot, so when you have in fact fired your last shot for the event, then the time on the screen is your time for the event.
