US 105mm M101A1 Training cartridge

I thought to post a couple of pictures of a training cartridge that I have in my collection. The cartridge is 105x372 M14 for the US 105mm howitzer used in WW2 and post war. This inert training case was made in 1962, but is interesting in that it has all 7 charge bags in good condition, still connected as they would be in a live round. We often find the brass cases but only rarely inert contents.
