Tim -


This is an Italian crew; note the soft cap on the left.  The mortar is the Italian Bombarda 400mm.

I'm sure you noted this was a compressed air / pneumatic weapon system.  The same type as tried by the French, and used by the KuK.   There thing is in a number of pics as I recall.  You might try here: http://www.odkrywca.pl/pokaz_watek.php?id=144139   It's a Polish forum, but not too difficult to follow.
