An exhibit at the patio of the Athens War Museum is a Skoda 75mm mountain gun.

What makes this 75mm mountain interesting, is the fact that its carriage is riddled with shrapnel.

One can only assume what happened to its crew.

The 75mm gun was refurbished for exhibition purposes at the 301 EB Army Unit, in September 2018. The Unit’s motto is “Where others can’t”.
