Hi all,

I would say Czech. No national eagle above the right top pocket of the tunic. There is also a pile of helmets between the guns, the top one looks like a Czech army one. There is one on the side that looks like a German one. The Czech army wore ww1 German/Austrian helmets in the 1920s, slowly converting to the newer style. The artillery was not at the front of the que for the new helments.

I’m a bit confused.
To me it seems from the shape of the breach and barrel in the eBay photos above (vs those taken recently) that both the canons used on the west wall and those in battery 3/778 (including the guns right by the beach) were the original Czech guns and not the German hybrid. The only photo of the German hybrid that I can see on this thread is that of the guns used by MKB du Cap Bear (2/MAA 625).
Best regards,
Nezar
