Surely some of the MLU expets can put my mind at rest.

Hi Gerry;
According to '
Mountain and Flood, the History of the 52nd (Lowland) Division, 1939-1946, by G. Blake, 1950 - 1st Mountain Regiment, R.A., was still equipped with the 3.7 inch How. in December 1944 (452 Mountain Battery).
Hope this helps.
Cheers
