1, British infantry armed with a Lee Enfield No4 rifle and a Bren light machine gun on an M4 Sherman tank in the Netherlands on September 24, 1944.

2, On October 28, 1939, British and civilians inspect the first German bomber shot down over Britain (during World War II) near the town of Mount Lammermore near Edinburgh

3, In 1944, a seriously wounded British soldier dotted "Huazi" (this one has a lot of stories).

4, a British paratrooper (killed) on the streets of Arnhem, Netherlands, during Operation Market Garden, who hung on the fence.

5. During training in 1941, a British infantryman wearing a gas mask and carrying a Lee Enfield No1 rifle (loaded with a P1907 bayonet) walked through a smoke screen (another Soviet photographer was also very fond of photographing this genre**).

That master of Soviet photography was Mark Markov Greenberg, whom we introduced earlier, and he photographed a large number of classic Soviet soldiers.

One of them is similar to the one above: the title of this ** is "For the Motherland"!

The other one was also taken by him** (I also like it personally).

This may be the charm of the old **.

6, In March 1943, during the RAF training in Cheshire, England, an unnamed British paratrooper from the 10th Parachute Battalion took a picture of himself while jumping out of a modified Armstrong Whitworth Wheatley bomber for parachute training.

7, On October 27, 1944, during the battle in 's-Hertogenbosch, the Netherlands, a Dutch civilian rescued his two children from danger and took them to the vicinity of a British Sherman tank (they were at a gas station).
