RALT 123, 104, 102, 46, 124, 120, 108, 107,
RALCH 110, 111, 11,
RAT 329,
RAF 60,
RAP 168, 159,

Re: French artillery 1940
hello
there are inaccuracies in this mixed list about the real identity title of these regiments, RALH is for Horsed and some are actually Automobile
101e to 104e RAL more 107e 108e 120e 123e 124e are Automobile 3 Groups/9 Batteries
105e 106e 109e 113e 114e 115e 116e 117e 118e 121e are Horsed 4 Groups/12 Batteries as well as the Colonial 11e 110e 111e RALC
329e RATTT 3 Groups/9 Batteries, 10th Anti-Tank added in june 1940
should verify each battery-type because they were not equiped by the same material even in the same regiment but one battery in this kind of regiments is usually 4 guns
