Description

A British Army anti-aircraft crew loading its gun which is located amidst transport vehicles and beside the crew's camp.
Location : Boyelles, France.
Comment : The gun appears to be a 13 pounder 9 cwt, based on the apparent neck of the shell cartridge and appearance of the gun's recuperator housing.
The gun is mounted on a Peerless lorry.
