Verrrry coool Ricardo! Thanks for sharing the pictures! Could you get a better picture of the plaque? Also I have letter describing the capture of a artillery piece from the same area. I will find it and post it as soon as I can dig it up.

Ricardo,
Thanks for sharing your pictures of this unique weapon with us. You don't see many pictures of these. It appears that it has been taken care of reasonably well.
