Johan Willaert Posted June 11, 2011 #30 Posted June 11, 2011 Here is a AA Gun and some others to follow along with a Massive Mortar. FWIW the AA Gun is a 1950s Belgian Army contract Bofors gun... Still has the Belgian Army data plate.... Wonder when they are going to remove the dataplate as they did with their 1945! D-Day used Waco Glider..... Nice pictures, keep'm coming
