This 15cm s.F.H. 93 was the first piece acquired by the Lovett artillery collection in 1981. Ralph Lovett completed the ground up restoration in 1987. The projectiles pictured with are Gr.12 types. This was one of the most common and effective projectiles in service with the 15cm. s.F.H. design series. Edited July 27, 2014 by ccj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccj Posted July 27, 2014 Author Share Posted July 27, 2014 Did the Germans really camo the guns with the disruptive pattern? From Lovett Site which is very helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccj Posted November 16, 2014 Author Share Posted November 16, 2014 Thanks you. The search for a nice artillery Schirmmutze to match the tunic continues... I would love to find some good photos on Fußartillerie officers wearing similar tunics to display on the wall behind this tunic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccj Posted June 5, 2021 Author Share Posted June 5, 2021 I was looking at photos on line and came across and interesting officers tunic fir Fußartillerie “272” with Guard Litzen so, I imagine these officers are transfers to other units. I think it’s 272. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prussian Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Hello! That´s strange. Fußart.Bttr.272 was formed by IX.Res.Korps. He shouldn´t wear Guard-Litzen.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccj Posted June 6, 2021 Author Share Posted June 6, 2021 I suppose it wasn’t too uncommon for officers to be transferred to new units and keep their litzen if from guard units. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
