Per Sheldon - Using British (ISO) in Swiss shell: 35 mm = 1.378". Shell is slightly larger, thread pitch slightly finer. May seem to fit, but will be loose.
Swiss is the same as French except the fixed cup is reversed.

This is Africa, 1943. War spits out its violence overhead and the sandy graveyard swallows it up. Her name is King Nine, B-25, medium bomber, Twelfth Air Force. On a hot, still morning she took off from Tunisia to bomb the southern tip of Italy. An errant piece of flak tore a hole in a wing tank and, like a wounded bird, this is where she landed, not to return on this day, or any other day.
