That is NOT a “howitzer”! It’s a gun: howitzers are cannon systems capable of both low angle and high angle fire interchangeably and one would assume, easily.

That pig would have to loaded at a low quadrant, then laboriously cranked up to 1100 mils or so - then laboriously cranked back down to loading elevation again, etc., etc.

Sheesh!

As an 0811 I know the difference - and if re-read my post, you'll notice I never called it a gun.
