Ideas. 1. In the United States pre-WW1 (and sometimes up until WW2) it was not uncommon for German to be spoken as a primary language in whole towns/regions the USA, particularly in the Midwest. A German immigrant may have moved to one of these communities with family with the ammo or ordered it there. 2. (And far more likely) it was taken as a war trophy or “liberated” from a German private residence in WW2
