The western Front in Flanders, one of the most terrible battlefields of the First World War, which raged more than a hundred years ago. Untill today the real reason for this horror is unknown.
In this trenchwar an entire generation was wiped out from all camps.
There was hardly any means of communication because the telephone lines were destroyed with every artillery attack. This was so bad that in the course of the war they had to make do with carrier pigeons and dogs that scattered the orders from the armies.
The newest and most devastating weapons were deplayed such as the machine gun, flamethrowers, airplanes and super cannons with shells weighing 7,1 tons that had a range of 38 kilometers!!
Due to the very inaccurate determination of the targets, the enitire battlefields were plowed by the heavy shells so streams and the water table changed while the battlefields became a large mud pool.
The men fought like lions, but were led by donkeys such as the Frenchman Ferdinand Foch, the German Rupprecht von Bayern and the Englisman Douglas Haig and other consorts, best described as butchers!
The life of the men was hell because of the constant threat of death and the exposure to heavy bombardements from the heavy artillery....

I had the day off on Wednesday so we went to Boyce Thompson Arboretum, about 45 minutes from our home. There was a fair amount of hummingbird activity, including this male Anna's Hummingbird. He hovered in front of me for a couple seconds checking me out. There wasn't yet much light so the shutter speed was just 1/25th of a second. Normally for hummingbird flight shots I'd like to be 1/1000th of a second. So instead of a machinegun rapid fire of the shutter, it was going click...click...click. Still has eyes and head came out sharp with the rest of him just a blur, especially those wings. I actually got several "postable" shots so I was pleased

A small wreck, already discovery by luck a few years ago, was always thought of as a coastal fishing boat. After re-visiting the wrecksite, we clearly discovered a small Gun, possibly an Anti-Aircraft Machinegun, which shows, this wreck si not a fishing vessel at all, maybe it is a sunken partizan boat from the resistance against the German Occupation in WW2?

With one arm resting on the prop here is Andrew the reenactor doing his Biggles bit . The plane is a Sopwith Camel - a bi-plane from the First World War era from about 1917 onwards . It did have quite a reputation as it was a bit of a handful to fly it appears !

When I took this photo 6 days ago at this stunning place – TY to the creators, I was thinking at the song Purple rain and I changed the lyrics (see below). Today I still think at this song, but I also see 2 Banksy Wall-art, which is the boy with a machinegun and the girl with a balloon. I think some boys need to learn to play with balloon’s and live, dance and smile in the pink flower rain.
Pink flower rain, pink flower rain
Pink flower rain, pink flower rain
Pink flower rain, pink flower rain
I only wanted to see you
Underneath the pink flower rain
Honey, I know, I know
I know times are changing
It's time we all reach out
For something new, that means you too
You say you want a leader
But you can't seem to make up your mind
I think you better close it
And let me guide you to the pink flower rain
IN ENGLISH BELOW THE LINE
Acabant'se la Segona Guerra Mundial, el regim feixista de Franco va temer (i per desgracia no fou així) una invasió aliada. Per això es fortificaren de punta a punta els Pirineus, amb una serie de fortificacions de formigó anomenades, amb "molta" imaginació, Linea P. Localment també s'ha conegut com Linea Gutierrez o Perez, potser com a broma.
Just sota Camprodon n'hi ha un sector força interessant. Hi ha diversos bunquers des del "Coll de Camprodon" seguint la carretera C38 fins al riu Ter en el punt on la plana desapareix del tot. Obviament, tot i "cedir" Camprodon, es un punt estrategic clau, ja que la carretera queda atrapada entre els cingles i el riu.
Aquest és un dels bunquers d'ametralladores que es troba més cap a dins del bosc.
A Martinet de Cerdanya es pot visitar un sector de la linea, el CR 53, al Cabiscol.

===============================================================
As the III Reich was losing World War II, their friends in the spanish fascist regime of Franco were afraid of an allied invasion (which never came, sadly). So they built a fortified line along the Pyrenees. It was much less impressive than the Maginot or Siegfried lines, but at least the mountains gave it a difficult terrain all arround. It was known as Linea P, "P-Line".
Just below Camprodon there is a quite interesting sector. There are several bunkers from the "Coll de Camprodon" following the C38 road to the river Ter at the point where the plain disappears completely. Obviously, despite "yielding" Camprodon, it is a key strategic point, since the road is trapped between the cliffs and the river.
This is one several bunkers that could be found deeper in the forest, but still controling the road south of Camprodon.
In Martinet de Cerdanya, a sector of the line (the CR-53) is open to the public and restored.
This picture of a figure of a machine gun helper at Gallipoli was taken at Te Papa Museum, Wellington at the exhibition "Gallipoli The Scale of our War". The scale of these figutres that were created by Peter Jackson's Weta Workshop in Wellington is stunning.
Please find a blog article and pictures that show the size of the figures on my website.
The machine guns of the Sopwith Camel from a pilots POV , they are cleverly syncronised with the propeller as it spins in front of the guns so as not to ever hit the blades of the props .
The Camel was powered by a single rotary engine and was armed with twin synchronized Vickers machine guns. Though difficult to handle, it was highly manoeuvrable in the hands of an experienced pilot, a vital attribute in the relatively low-speed, low-altitude dogfights of the era.

When an APC isn't necessary but armour still is, the CDU deploys Wolverines. With armour sufficient against small arms and light anti-armour fire, it can get a soldier from A to B without much hassle, and can even act as a stand-in for an IFV with its dual 5.56 (7.62 for FH variant) TATO machineguns.
not my cup of tea, but I imagine July 4th is their favorite holiday next to Christmas. At least nobody is holding the mounted machine gun. A parade brings us all together for a morning.
Happy Slider's Sunday!
Light Machinegun modification of SCAR-L, I put some hours into this, and I, myself am really proud of tiny details. So yeah, I hope you like it.
Never Play With Guns - -
Somerset Armed Forces Day 2026, transforming Taunton’s Vivary Park into a hub of celebration and community appreciation.
Teaching children about the dangers of guns is a complex subject, particularly within the UK where firearm access is strictly limited compared to other nations.
The Pros
Accident Prevention: The foremost benefit is safety. Educating children to never touch a firearm and to immediately alert an adult if they encounter one can prevent tragic accidents if they come across an illegally held weapon or a legally owned sporting gun.
Demystification: Shielding children entirely can sometimes breed curiosity. Open, age-appropriate discussion removes the "forbidden fruit" appeal, making them less likely to secretly investigate a weapon out of fascination.
Media Literacy: Children are frequently exposed to heavily romanticised or unrealistic gun violence in video games, television, and films. Teaching the real-world consequences helps them distinguish between digital entertainment and lethal reality.
Emergency Preparedness: Much like fire safety drills or "stranger danger" discussions, equipping children with a clear action plan instils confidence and prepares them to handle an unexpected, high-risk situation responsibly.
The Cons
Risk of Generating Anxiety: For younger or more sensitive children, introducing the concept of lethal weapons can cause unnecessary fear, anxiety, or a false impression that their immediate environment is unsafe.
Piquing Curiosity: Paradoxically, raising the topic can sometimes backfire. For certain personality types, drawing attention to a taboo or dangerous object can unintentionally stimulate a desire to seek it out or experiment with it.
Contextual Irrelevance: Given the UK’s exceptionally stringent gun control laws, the statistical likelihood of an average British child encountering an unsecured firearm is incredibly low. Some argue that curriculum time is better spent on more prevalent safety risks, such as water, road, or online safety.
Difficulty in Striking the Right Balance: Designing a curriculum that effectively warns children without glorifying the mechanics of weaponry or causing undue panic is incredibly difficult, and poorly delivered lessons can do more harm than good.

thii is the inside, one magnetic dude, and two spare seperate sets of armor. So freakin cool. And it goes great with the other five ;) But I still need more!!!!!!!

El Museu del Aixecament de Varsòvia (Muzeum Powstania Warszawskiego) és un dels més visitats, i amb raó, de la capital polonesa. Aquí podeu tenir una visió detallada dels més salvatges i tràgics dies de la història de Polònia entre agost i octubre de 1944. Hi ha fotografies, narracions, mapes, filmacions, armament i altres objectes vinculats al conflicte.
Aquest es punt de vista que no voldrieu tenir de una ametralladora MG-42, probablement la més famosa de la II Guerra Mundial. Al aixecament de Varsòvia fou emprada per ambdós bandols.
Aquesta foto forma part de tot un viatge pel centre de Polònia, enfocat especialment en els més tragics moments del Holocaust i la II Guerra Mundial, que esclafà Polonia com pocs llocs, però que alhora contrasta amb l'increible renaixement del país fins al moment actual.

=============================================
The Warsaw Uprising Museum (Muzeum Powstania Warszawskiego) is—rightly so—one of the most visited museums in the Polish capital. Here, you can gain a detailed insight into the most brutal and tragic days of Poland's history between August and October 1944. The museum features photographs, narratives, maps, film footage, weaponry, and other artifacts related to the conflict.
This is the view you wouldn't want to have of an MG-42 machine gun—probably the most famous of World War II. It was used by both sides during the Warsaw Uprising.
This photo is part of a trip through central Poland, focused especially on the most tragic moments of the Holocaust and World War II, which devastated Poland like few places, but which at the same time contrasts with the incredible rebirth of the country up to the present day.
