The gunners’ favourite The 25-pounder gun/howitzer is one of Britain’s most iconic artillery weapons used effectively throughout WW2 when its six-man crew would have travelled with it from the beaches of Normandy to the outskirts of Berlin. Most artillerymen during the period, including famous names such as Spike Milligan and Harry Secombe, would have used one of these guns during its 30 years service. A 25-pounder is still fired every day at Fort Nelson as part of our public display. Durable, quick-firing [QF] and versatile. During its thirty years of service the 25-pounder supported British and Commonwealth forces in combat zones around the world. With its light and manoeuvrable carriage, this gun proved effective in a wide variety of conditions, from the heat of the desert and jungle to the cold and wet of Northern Europe. Developed from the First World War British 18-pounder and 4.5-inch howitzer, this gun was multi-functional. Introduced in 1937, it operated as a field gun firing direct at a visible target, but used as a howitzer it could shoot over obstacles.
