buellmeister Posted April 26, 2007 Author Share Posted April 26, 2007 Derulle, I want to thank you for including pictures from your collection. You've got some great shots of casual Trench life when the bombs and bullets fell silent.Regards,Joel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deruelle Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Hi, Thanks for your comments. It's very hard to find photos during attack.I may have one or two in my collection but here in France it's difficult to find Imperial German photos. I have some more photos to post this evening.RegardsChristophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chip Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Nice photos Christophe. You can almost always tell when a photo is taken in the forward trenches, because the gas masks are usually present. Only one of your photos shows a gasmask (the smallest photo). Not too many cameras were taken into the hot zones. You might have to leave it behind in a rush and who had time for picture taking there anyway?Chip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deruelle Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Hi, You are right Chip. I have only one photo like this smaller I post above. I have got some others photos in trench. have a look.RegardsChristophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luftwaffe Rules Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Joel, these are great...I too love collecting photos as of late, just mine are WWII Luftwaffe Wedding photos because I love that they show the happiness in the time of hurt and pain. These photos are wonderful, if only to know what they were thinking and had seen. All the best, Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buellmeister Posted April 29, 2007 Author Share Posted April 29, 2007 Jon, Good to see you my friend. Thank you for the compliment. The Wedding pictures are thought provoking too. I think the thought of surviving the War must have been looming over the entire ceremony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hunyadi Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Just loved this thread and had to throw in the few that I have that are truly 'at the front'.First is one that just speaks volumes to me. 'The Eyes Tell the Soul' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunyadi Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 From the looks of it - some photograpehr wanted to document the survival of the gun crew after such a 'mishap'. I think they are still amazed to have made it this far. Date on the reverse is May of 1918... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunyadi Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Long time ago I got a collection of postcards all titled Brest-Lovosk 1915/1916. This photo appears to be of the same MG company. But this one is the only one - truly at the front. No designation as to where this actualy is though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buellmeister Posted May 15, 2007 Author Share Posted May 15, 2007 (edited) Hunyadi and wdmosher, Thank you for your additions to this thread. Superb pictures Gentlemen! Hunyadi, I agree with you 100% on picture number 70. Death und Carnage are certainly no strangers to those men seeminging placed right in the thick of it. Absolutely a fantastic picture.Regards,Joel Edited May 15, 2007 by buellmeister Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
