Ready to Deploy

German soldiers surround a captured French heavy 240 mm howitzer "Saint-Chamond" Model 84. Several of these howitzers - captured during the invasion of France in 1940 - were put to service by the Germans under the designation K 556(f), and were deployed along the Atlantic Wall. This picture was taken in June 1940.
