Thumbnail image: Gun No. 1 at Sidi N'sir

Description

This is the remains of Gun No. 1 of F troop, 155th Field Battery after the battle of Sidi N'sir. The entire crew of this gun were killed while fighting German tanks.

Another photo of Gun No. 1, F Troop shows its sandbagged emplacement. This photo is linked to the other one by the angle of the gun's road wheel, which is exactly the same; by the similarity of the debris around it; and by the rocks of the distant ridge, which match up exactly at the edges of the two photos.
