Great photos! While I was looking through a number of photos I found one of an American Officer standing in a collapsible boat. This guy look just like me! or vise a versa. I wish I had made a copy of it, can't find it now. You should look through the photos and try to find your doubleganger.

We've probably all seen this one but, it's still a cool pic. I consider it the WW1 version of the WW2 pic. of the MG42 gunner at the Battle of the Bulge. Great picture, shows how the Storm Troops carried a minimum amount of gear. To all my fellow Huns read The Storm of Steel when it came to the Storm Troop it was all about the grenade. Attachments:

Talk about the 1000 yard stare! Think we may have seen alittle too much combat? Makes me feel sorry for the poor bloke.

Yep and, this was taken at the Somme so, if he survived and, wasn't severely wounded he still had over two more years of it.
