Hi everyone, I have found this image on the internet and wonder if it is Romanian Troops firing either a 5cm Brandt M.37 or 5cm Granatwerfer 36.

Are you sure this is a 50mm weapon? Looks a tad bigger to me - say a 60mm Brandt?

That has to be a 60mm Brandt model 1935.
It was both imported from France before the war and produced in country later.
As far as I know, there were no 50 mm mortars in Romanian service.
