The 13 and 18 Pdr British Artillery Guns in WW1

Great War Field Artillery Pt 1. As a result of lessons learnt during the Boer War the British introduced three new guns to their artillery inventory. This programme is about two of those guns:
The 13 Pdr used by the RHA, and The 18 Pdr used the RFA.
Over 9500 of the guns were produced by the end of the war. In fact the 18 pdr was still in service in 1939 and the 13 Pdr is still in service with The Kings Troop Royal Horse Artillery as the ceremonial gun for the British Army.
