 Subject:  M102 105mm in VietnamList thread.  
  
 Date:  Jun 28, 2001
 From:  Hervé CharbyCharbonneau 
Yes, the M102 did see service in Vietnam, with Airborne artillery units.
I have seen quite a few pictures of firebases with M102 howitzers manned
by 101st AB artillerymen. AFV Club's kit of the M102 has instructions to
make a Vietnam-era version.

On the other hand, if I remember correctly, turning Italeri's old 105mm
howitzer kit into a Vietnam-era piece requires some work,

For what it's worth,

Charby
