Flamethrower assault
Russian infantry training with flamethrower sappers.
It is not clear if the flamethrower is a static or portable model. In the center of the photo, sappers in heavy fireproof suits can be seen.
They appear to be waiting to take turns at the flamethrower; one is seen running to the right.
The flameproof overalls were copies of the British Suit, Anti-liquid Fire, Pattern 3023/1918.
Photos of Russian flamethrower sappers in action are virtually nonexistent.
