nice to be a Hotchkiss

Early WW2, or at least just before WW2, probably pre-war maneuvers.

@ampthilluk Nope. It says 1914 because thats the year the weapon was invented , hence why its called the Hotchkiss M1914. Besides judging by the uniforms and the quality of the film thats WW2. And ive seen that clip in the TV history documentary series the "World at War"
-
@ampthilluk Yeah i know ive got the series, whats your point?
-
Good video, I believe that footage is from the "World at War"

Is one of the gunner's comrades holding his hand across the sights whenever the gun's run out of ammo and so not to damage the mechanism?
