Railroad & Cables Leading to Artillery Positions: St. Mihiel Front

Hoffman, Peter B.

A rail line and cable are pushing through a forested area at the St. Mihiel Front in France during World War I. The railroad and cable continues straight back to the photograph. It has a few vines, tree limbs, and lines of cable covering the railroad. There is a small, rocky hill towards the foreground of the photograph that the railroad is in between. the rocky hill then ends to an area filled with trees towards the background of the image. An allied soldier is standing to the left of the railroad and looking at the photographer. He is wearing his uniform and his right arm and leg are extended towards the railroad.
