DescriptionLoading2inchMortarBalkanFront.jpg |
English: Photograph of British troops loading a Vickers 2 inch Medium Mortar ("Toffee Apple" mortar) with "Post, No.4, Mark I periscope" attached.
The caption states this is on the Balkan front, which could be deliberate wartime disinformation. This in fact appears to be a training exercise as no fuse is visible on the bomb, and frontline trenches would be deeper. See also Image:TroopsOperating2inchMortarInTrenchWWI.jpg which appears to be of the same location. |
