Geocache Description:


A multi based on the M114A2 Howitzer.

This weapon saw service in the US Army in WWII, Korea and Vietnam before being replaced by the M198 Howitzer. It fired a bullet that is 6 inches in diameter and roughly 3 feet long and weighing close to 100 pounds!!!

The NH Army National Guard had these Howitzers until the M198 rolled out and these were replaced.
