Hey all, I have a new found interest, 37mm WW1 shells
1) on the left, I just got it a few days ago at a militaria shop in St. Louis
Mo. It is a WW1 German bunker buster shell. On the shell base case is EPT K 119A Sp255 1918 and there is a symbol on the flat top of the pro-
jectile that I can't quite make out.
2) middle on shell casr PDP 165 37-85 1.18 with ordnance bomb and what appears to be a 0 on the screw in fuse body (French)
3) is another French shell with PDPs 309 37 9.17 and what looks like the ordnance bomb on the shell casing. On the screw in fuxe is C39216.
Again I know very little to nothing on the 37mm shells but the bunker buster is my favorite. No comment or information necessary but welcome..Dan
