Came across this article, great photos. The Victory And The Cost | Legion Magazine also: a handy Normandy Campaign Timeline (Also great photos) Normandy Campaign Timeline | Legion Magazine
I reckon the Schiemser ws prob the most common and prized captured enemy materiel???? great action shot, looks nice and steady shooting Why is the dispatch rider so interested. (is he foling a 303 with baynot) Funny flash on his lid. Kev
Its certainly an interesting photo, was it usual for allied troops to use German Weapons. I suppose in a situation like that, any weapon is a weapon, doesnt matter where it came from.
Infantrymen of The Regina Rifle Regiment and a despatch rider firing into a damaged building, Caen, France, 10 July 1944. Bell, Ken., Photographer From Library and Archives Canada the attached photograph has a wider view and you can see a motorcycle to the right, Despatch riders? Great picture.
