WWII Relics
Here are some relics of the Great War- WWI. My father was a Lieutenant of Engineers with the 26th Division and served in the Argonne and St Mihiel offensives. The large shell cases are French 75’s to be used as vases. The two smaller ones are whet my father always called “one Pounders”. I think that they are French. The base reads, across the top-“37-85” and across the bottom as “PDPs 136 2 16” followed by what looks to be the US ordnance bomb symbol. The one POUNDER on the left reads "WERDUN" and the one on th right reads "FRANCE".

They are, of course, inert.
