This picture was sent by a Vietnam buddy of mine just a couple days ago. It was the 175mm howitzer that we slept by while at a base camp called Bear Cat in Vietnam. Real loud as you can imagine. No wonder my hearing is not what it should be. The amazing thing is that even while asleep, you can tell the difference between the sounds of big guns outgoing and incoming mortars and rockets, even though they are not nearly as loud, you wake up instantly at the sound of incoming. The gun had a range of about 25 miles. The incoming rounds were fired from less than a mile away. Our small detachment of eight provided radio relay communications.

My father was in WWI in Europe, and ikn his spare time he made what is called "Trench Art" out of used shells. Here are 2 examples. I also have the negatives of pictures he took in the army – troop ships, bombed-out cities, etc.
