When German artillery crews captured an American 155mm Long Tom, they expected a standard heavy gun. Instead, they discovered a weapon that completely outclassed anything in their arsenal. The Long Tom could fire 14 miles with accuracy, outranging Germany’s famous 88mm, which reached only about 10 miles under ideal conditions.
For German commanders, this range difference was devastating. The Long Tom could strike supply hubs, gun positions, troop concentrations, and even withdrawing units long before German artillery could fire back. Its mobility, stability, and rapid setup time shocked crews used to slower, less flexible heavy guns.
This video reveals why the Long Tom stunned the Wehrmacht, how its firepower shaped major offensives, and why American long-range artillery became one of the most feared and effective weapons of the European battlefield.
