The 51st Highland Division managed to send there 25 pounders back as they were not with the BEF, but fighting alongside the French, The retreated to St Valerie but had sent the guns to Le Harve as they no longer had any ammunition for them. The 51st were captured at St Valerie.

@markbowen3638 Funny, you would think the retreating troops would have kept a full inventory, they had sooo much time to do it!

Montgomery had two Captured Italian HQ trucks which he used through the campaigns. They are now property of the Imperial War Museum. He slept in one staying close to the front often ahead of his Generals.

@AbelMcTalisker The information is from the History of the 51st Highland Division. I and no one has the knowledge to question it. If the official history says they were shipped back then they were. If they were random ships landing equipment at Le Harve then its a shame that they did not embark the 51st.

@AbelMcTalisker I accept the facts from the 51 st Highland Division history, they said they put the guns on a ship. It may be some sort of conspiracy theory that the Army would turn around a ship full of used and possibly damaged guns and send them back. My theory would be they sent in new guns and ammunition, but fill your boots.

@markbowen3638 Understood, have you seen the German records?

@LucioFercho I have no idea what your point is. All armies used captured equipment and it could be fro one to hundreds. In North Africa the Allies only used one captured weapon at the end, it was the Flak 88. Early in the war they used vast quantities of captured Italian guns and tanks. The Australian "Bush Gunners " used Italian artillery in Tobruk against the Germans while the British Gunners used 75 pounders.
