EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing collection belongs to Lieutenant D.F. Pilkington of the Royal Garrison Artillery, dating back to the final months of World War I. The centerpiece of this assemblage is a vibrant, hand-drawn diagram depicting various types of German ammunition, including field artillery shells and fuses. The diagram is dated October 12, 1918, providing a glimpse into the critical moments leading up to the end of the war. Accompanying the diagram are two booklets titled "Notes on the Ammunition for Siege Howitzers." The first booklet, dated 1916, offers valuable insights into the ammunition used by the British military during the early stages of the conflict. The second booklet, a revised edition from 1917, reflects the evolving nature of warfare and the adaptations made to the ammunition in response to changing tactics and enemy defenses. The Royal Garrison Artillery, one of the oldest and most distinguished military regiments in the British Army, played a crucial role in the defense and siege operations during World War I. This collection, with its detailed diagram and informative booklets, offers a fascinating glimpse into the technical aspects of the artillery during this period. The significance of this collection lies not only in its historical value but also in its ability to transport us back in time, providing a unique perspective on the military strategies and innovations employed during the Great War.
