The barrels on these seem to be too thick and short to be s 10cm K-18s, I wager that they are in fact the ubiquitous 15cm sFH-18.

Hello

I know 1 + 1 = not always 2 , but found some information on the units 633 and II/818 in 1940 ,
also found some picture's on Ebay from Nieuwpoort Bad in 1940 with a gun that looks like the
10 cm K 18 . Could the gun on the blurry picture's be the 10 cm K 18 ??

Regards Jos

Yes, from the length of the ordnance these are sK-18s.

Hello Sturm

s. 10 cm K. 18
the dimensions of an K. 39 are much bigger....
