Is this supposed to be a slideshow?

Interesting stuff but my only comment is this, did you or someone else try to convert old film to digital as there were a few bits that went a bit hay-wire, otherwise very interesting; & to think that there is tons of film & pics yet to be seen by the public, even every day life (from 30's & 40's) nowa-days is rare to see....& some of the old ways were & still are the best.

*Thanks for posting a rare glimpse of the past, cheers.

Nice Concept, however, as an Ex 'Squaddie' i think you may have lost at least 50% of the troops, as they had the habit of 'Bunching' (means they could have been massacred by one MG gewehr)..Steve

You'll tend to find that this is a problem for most section maneouvres. Once you know where the forward scout is, it it fairly easy to hide and wait for the rest of the section before taking them out with a single machine gun. It is a simple matter of developing techniques to get around these operational issues.
