IIUGE FRENCH GUN AT VERDUN IS PHOTOGRAPHED AT THE MOMENT OF FIRING

- it''

This remarkable photograph of a huff French gon at Verdun at tha moment of firing is a rare piece of photography. The men shown in the photo have their hands to their ears, although the artillerymen always have their ears "plugged." The great rings of smoke as the shell starts on its journey can be plainly seen. The dark ring has "spokes" in it, as though the crash of the bullet as it speeds through the air shattered it. The smoke is still coming out of the gun. Note the position where the gun is mounted far down behind the mounds of earth. Shell holes can be seen everywhere, indicating that the gun is mounted at an advanced post.
