Word origin
The word 'grenade' originated from the French word 'grenade' meaning pomegranate, due to the resemblance of early grenades to the shape of the fruit. Grenades have been used in warfare for centuries, evolving from simple explosive containers to more sophisticated designs. They play a significant role in modern military tactics and are a symbol of both destruction and tactical advantage.
