German field artillery and its crew firing, a village under fire and burning in the distance. 'In treue fest!' — in unbreakable loyalty — affirms the unshakeable bond between Germany and Austria-Hungary. A sketch dated February 9, 1915 F. Huber, pencil with colored pencil highlights. Huber was evidently with the First Bavarian Army Corps (K.B. 1 Armeekorps — Königlich Bayerisches Armee-Korps) which was fighting in position on the Somme from October 10, 1914 to October 6, 1915. (Sources: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/I._Königlich_Bayerisches_Armee-Korps and wiki-de.genealogy.net/I._Bayerisches_Armeekorps_(Alte_Armee).) |

Intermission at a French theater, 1915. Women and a girl knit, socks perhaps, for soldiers at the front, as does a Red Cross nurse seated between two sleepy soldiers, one — from an Algerian regiment — visibly wounded. An older man reads the news. Illustrated by A. Guillaume, the postcard is captioned in the languages of the Entente Allies, French, English, and Russian. |
