A German 15cm Siege gun

A photograph showing a German gun captured by French soldiers during the Battle of the Somme. Intended to be a decisive breakthrough, the Battle of the Somme instead became a futile and indiscriminate slaughter, with General Haigs tactics remaining controversial even today. The four and a half month campaign eventually gave way to a stalemate and by mid-November the offensive was over. The British forces were decimated with 420, 000 casualties, among them many of the new voluntary battalions.
