david f Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 here are a couple of new things that arrived in the post. The first one is a Photograph that was removed from a photoalbum of life in a trench As you can see there looks to be little danger as one of the men is on lip of the trench And the second one is a postcard of a machine gun troup.I have incresed the size of hte group of men in the middle as one of them seems to have a badge of some description on his sleeve.Could this be a machine gun badge? Close up and i have scanned the back of the postcard in a negative way as it makes it easier to read. Hope you enjoy looking at these David F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenny Andrew Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Nice pics Dave, I like the first one where they are wearing the ersatz felt pickelhaubes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Photos are great, I would guess the first is a rear area, perhaps training camp or so... officers, clean men, sitting atop the parapet... not front line stuff... plus German Trenches tended to be very deep!
