Very interesting, and at the same time very sad pictures of the Polish Bofors guns. They seem to tell us though that they went down fighting! Another thing that struck me is that all the wheels have been removed.......sabotage?

Hello Godwin,

Hard to say if sabotage...

According to my knowledge all types of wheels are desired and valuable "war goods" for civilian people all over the world, always and at every war.

If sabotage then rather Polish troops sabotage against the Germans. I think that majority of the guns showed at the pics has its vital parts destroyed by Polish troops to make the guns unuseful for the enemy.

Best regards
