Hoplophile Posted 4 March , 2014 Share Posted 4 March , 2014 A friend who is currently touring the battlefield at Belleau Wood ran across an unexploded field gun shell. I am posting a picture of it in hope of an expert identification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4thGordons Posted 4 March , 2014 Share Posted 4 March , 2014 pics need to be <250kb (file size) and smaller than 1600x1200pixels dimensions (although the forum will resize this) and also of a standard type (ie jpg) pictures direct from a modern digital camera or phone are usually significantly larger than this. Alternatively they can be hosted outside (eg photobucket) and linked or embedded here. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ph0ebus Posted 4 March , 2014 Share Posted 4 March , 2014 Well, to be fair, while the OP did say they would be posting a photo, they did not specifically say they would post the photo HERE... -Daniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
