I need pics, preferable from above, on the modified 25pdr 'Baby 25pdr' as used in the far east by Australian forces. I have a view from the right hand side, a pic of one being used by US troops and one of Aussies hauling a gun by hand on the Kokoba Trail ( Papua new Guinea). I also have a verbal description.
Has anybody any more info. on this please? For my "Incoming" entry the gun will be jeep towed so the castor wheel isn't important.
