WORLD WAR I (more or less)
Two brothers beside an early 1917.
Early 1917 w/ slab sided receiver on 1917 tripod.
Not a Browning, but a beautiful 08 Maxim
Another 1917, but this is the only period photo I have ever seen showing
the leather funnel used to fill the water jacket. The funnel is sitting on
the steam chest.
Click on this image for an enlargement of the funnel, or visit the Steam Chest Site for more images.

Training exercise? I'd like to see a shot of this move one second later. That 1917A1 tripod is about to take the soldier for a ride.
In Belgium, WWII. Kind of a sheepish grin. This must be the guy who forgot to cover his weapon the night before.
