From another photoset I lifted what I considered the least seen images. Artillery of various nations are shown.
Belgian artillery from early in the war
This one has been posted here before, but it always amazes me anyone would try to storm that position.
Austrian 305mm
German heavy being wrestled into position
Brit gun on the Somme
Belgian HMG
Another Brit piece "exchanging compliments" with the opposition
French Chauchat MG. Notice the open magazine that led to so many stoppages
German officer inspects a trophy French MG
British spigot mortar - the bomb was called a "flying pig"
British mortar. With the remote firing lanyard, they don't seem too sure of their safety with it.
Americans using rifle grenades
Trophy minenwerfer
Everybody's enemy - mud
French gas attack warning bell
Italian mine thrower
Italian heavy - most likely on the Isonzo front
Italian position on the Piave (sp) River, Isonzo Front
Italian position facing Austrians in their mountain trenches
Serb battery
