The preparation of a kite-balloon before take-off
Allied soldiers photographed putting the finishing touches to the envelope of a kite-balloon shortly before take-off. Such balloons remained tethered to the ground and were used to observe the surrounding terrain from a basket suspended beneath. Their primary use was to assist artillery on the ground in finding their targets
