  When you see vets of that generation it's easy to understand why so many wear hearing aids. In spite of modern ear defenders in other armies, hearing damage persists. Super picture 👍

  They all look like mortars except the first one. The inner diameter seems too small and the barrel too thick to be used for mortar grenades.
  However Im no expert on the old mortars and could be wrong.
  Anyways nice historical picture.
