Looks like a captured Soviet ZIS-3 76.2mm Divisional gun being pulled by Germans. Can't tell what that ammo carrier is. PzKpfw III chassis? Hmmmm....

oh;)

My shool was named military unit name who was fighting in ww2
It is quite popular in Poland to follow military tradition during comunistic days. But not only.
We have many shools named both country heroes like  Kosciuszko or Pulawski /u should recognise that names;) are u?;)/

Som schools have other monumets like tanks or airplanes.
So if u drive thrue Poland u can meet many  monuments like that, special in small towns or just on villages. Placed to remember battlefields or just to make this places attractive.

I was born and live as child in area where was high activity of guerilla and SS take many fight against Poles. In 1939 during defense war and later during ocupation.  U can find here battefields from Bonaparte times and later Polish uprising against russia. Still is high possibly to find som stuff from this days /if somone looking for that/.

"My" 2 guns are just place on the front of my old shool and was nice place to child play. Now i think allost noone care about that, times change;)

Looks like either a prototype for the Bergepanzer II on the D/E chassis or a Pionier-Kampfwagen II engineer vehicle towing the artillery piece.
