Items Recovered At Work

[Joerg]

Hello Spotter, my pictures, about this ammunition, are all of Hillersleben. Whether they were in the application, about that I have no knowledge.
In the book about Hillersleben the shell becomes as 15 cms Flü. Wednesday Gr. (60 kg) for heavy Infantriegeschütz 33.

Mix of finds

Ok Spotter so you have a nice collection!!:woohoo:
I see 120 MM Prac SH in mangled condition
120 MM Prac SH in complete condition
76 MM ARMDC BE Smoke
155 MM FH70 HE in what looks like unfired condition
(HE Painted but not filled?)
and numerous 25 pounder projectiles of all sorts.

So my question is what happens next-now you have collected all of them what do you do with them all??
