We had the grand ol' M-109 but they switched to Panzerhaubitze 2000 in the meantime.

car accident and messed up my back

Zitat von maestro am 7 März, 2007, 0216 Uhr*salutes back, but probably should have saluted first, anyway*
Didn't matter much for me, for some reason few got the sweet irony that the only thing not armoured out there was the mobile hq :(
In the first two hours of the only excercise i took part in 2 separate main battle tanks stopped to ask a pretty large bush (us) for the way and the battery commanders parked their jeeps (pennants attached) on the other side of the few trees that disguised us from the large field with the "enemy" on the other end.
Armoured howitzers somehow make no sense if the fire control post drags all the enemy fire upon itself, anyway.
