hint:
a theatre, which had influenced the Wehrmacht's earliest approaches to unconventional warfare.

In addition, what I want to say was that officers like the founding father of the Baulehrregiment Brandenburg Theodor von Hippel were inspired by their service with Paul von Lettow-Vorbecks guerilla style warfare in German East-Africa

Helmut,

this lookes like a from a "Diorama", close combat fighting of French and German troops in WW1, and also in color...

Unfortunately, the picture is very small, and to be honest, I can't think of anything..?

The new ' All Quiet on the Western Front ' version of this year 2022 ?

[Helmut0815]

Much older film. Not the western front. Take a look at the scenery.

Hi Helmut,

is it a black and white film that was subsequently colored ? Somehow these scenes seem familiar to me..?
(The colors are kinda "merkwürdig"...)


Hans

[Helmut0815]

No, it's a color movie.

Helmut,

no idea, sorry: https://creepycatalog.com/world-war-i-movies/
I know the old and modern classics, but unfortunately I can't say anything about the newer productions.

A Farewell to Arms?

[Helmut0815]

A Farewell to Arms?

You are coming very close to the solution.

[Waleed Y. Majeed]

In love and war (1996)?
With a young Hemingway in Italy on the Italian side during WW1. Is he the one with the red cross armband in the last picture?

Waleed

[Helmut0815]

Yes he is, In Love and War, the 3rd film adaption of young Ernest Hemingways experiences at the alpine front.

Over to you.


best regards



Helmut

[Waleed Y. Majeed]

Hi Waleed,

when I look closely at this "Sniper", the actor Chuck Norris comes to mind... (Your "Smiley")
(Unfortunately, I am not familiar with his films, the films are not in my "league".)

I can't think of much about the "Mosin-Nagant" sniper rifles either, a very complex and highly interesting subject...
Mosin-Nagant: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mosin-Nagant

"Soviet Mosin–Nagant model 1891/30 sniper rifle with PU 3.5×21 sight" (Wikipedia E)

The English-language Wiki entry is quite complete about the many variants.

P.S. By the way, a very good rifle, quite on a par with the German models of the 98 series, but only by the way.
