EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the chaos and smoke of the Western Front during the First World War, German gunners diligently prepare their 17cm rail-mounted rapid firing gun for action. The great war had brought about a new era in artillery warfare, with the need for faster and more destructive weapons to gain the upper hand. In this image, taken between 1914 and 1918, we see a team of German soldiers working together to load and aim the massive gun. The 17cm gun, also known as the "Big Bertha," was one of the largest and most powerful guns of the war, capable of firing a shell over 10 miles. The men work quickly and efficiently, their faces focused and determined as they carry out their duties. The rail-mounted design allowed for greater mobility and flexibility, enabling the gun to be moved to different locations and fired from various angles. The use of railways also facilitated the rapid deployment and repositioning of these powerful weapons, making them a formidable force on the battlefield. Despite the harsh conditions and the constant danger of enemy fire, these German gunners remain steadfast in their mission to support their troops and turn the tide of the war in their favor.
