105mm Howitzers

17/3/2014

I thought you might be interested in a bit of a montage I put together with a couple of 105 mm howitzers. They're all versions of the venerable M1A1,aka the  M101, the C1A1, the C2A1, etc. I also thought I would leave the pictures uncaptioned and let the viewers debate where they pictures were taken over a beer at the mess. Or, one could put in a comment on the blog page. Many thanks
to Harold Skaarup and his website Military History Books. He's got a great collection of photos of Guns across Canada and it's well worth a long visit at http://silverhawkauthor.com/artillery-canada_329.html.
I also need to thank a couple of other websites. The people over at http://olive-drab.com and the  Beyt  ha-Totchan Museum.Can you identify the location of each of the guns featured? I must confess, it would have been easier if I had numbered each of them. Unfortunately, I am still a bit of a neophyte to much of this technology. Let's just number them from the left; Number 1 gun, Number 2 gun, Number 3 gun ...
Cheers
Leon
