Scenes of the First World War
Dramatic footage of Italian and British troops on the front line and airborne.
Overview
Dramatic footage of Italian and British troops on the front line and airborne. Shots of Italian troops on the mountainous Italy/Austria front line are followed by some vivid aerial footage, and a British 12 inch howitzer being prepared for firing at the German lines. The date of this footage is uncertain: the latter sections with the howitzer are likely to date from 1916.
