Men of "The Iron Division" in a forward command position in Bois Brulé

One of my favourite pictures. Unfortunately nothing on reverse.

Infantrymen from Infanterie-Regiment von Goeben (2. Rheinisches) Nr.28 (16th Div.), in a forward command position somewhere in the Bois-Brule area. Note the improvised gas alarm and stick grenades ready to hand.

In some sections of the St. Mihiel Salient, the French and German front lines were extraordinarily close together. One such area is Bois Brule, which is an extensive area of woodland above the little town of Apremont-la-Foret, east of St. Mihiel.

Recaptured by the French Colonial Corps during the Franco-American St. Mihiel Salient operation in September 1918, Bois Brule had seen brief action by the U.S. 26th Division in April of that year. The first Distinguished Service Cross awarded to a member of the AEF was for an action in Bois Brule at this time.

The 16th Division marched through Luxembourg, Belgium and France, in what became known to the Allies as the Great Retreat, culminating in the First Battle of the Marne. In 1916, it fought in the Battle of the Somme.

The Division was briefly sent to the Eastern Front in late 1916. It saw action in 1917 in the Battle of Passchendaele, also known as the Third Battle of Ypres. It participated in the 1918 German Spring Offensive, including the Battle of the Lys, and defended against the Allied counteroffensives, including the Second Battle of the Somme. The 16th Infantry Division was a highly regarded division early in the war, known as the Iron Division, but by 1918 Allied intelligence rated it a second class division

Gas alarm

Here’s a photo from a 24 hour tour of duty (29-30 Aug 2009) involving Junior Fire Fighters in Schwelm, Germany. Their tour began at 07:00 and lasted a full 24 hours.
Incidents were planned throughout the day and night so the Juniors (sometimes called Explorers in the USA) could experience the work of a real full-time fire fighter.
This particular event was overshadowed by an apartment fire during the night, where 4 people died and 2 children survived.

Das ist ein Foto des 24 Stundendienstes / Berufsfeuerwehrtages der Jugendfeuerwehr Schwelm am 29 und 30 August 2009. Dienstbeginn war Samstag um 7 und endete (offiziel^^) Sonntag um 7. Uber den gesamten Dienst waren Einsatze geplant um den Jugendlichen einen Einblick in die Arbeit eines "richtigen Berufsfeuerwermanns" zu geben.
Der BF Tag wurde von einem schweren Wohnungsbrand in der darauffolgenden Nacht uberschattet, bei dem 4 Menschen (+ ein Ungeborenes) starben und 2 Kinder uberlebten.
