Default 25/18-pdr

Thanks Keith, a couple of interesting images.

I know the common way to reference the 25-pdr ordnance on the 18-pdr carriage is '18/25-pdr', but as can be seen in official references, the gun's short reference is actually a '25/18-pdr'. As with all British 'long format' nomenclature, the ordnance is listed first, the carriage second.

Mike
