African American Field Artillery Battalion of U.S. 92nd Infantry Division, equipped with tractor-drawn 8-inch Howitzers, in Mantes-Gassicourt, France during World War II.

American soldiers of a Field Artillery Battalion in the 92nd Infantry Division (Colored), "Buffalo Soldiers," are seen at their 8-inch howitzer emplacement, among trees near Mantes-Gassicourt, France during World War 2. Their M4 high speed tractor is parked nearby and two soldiers unload 8-inch shells from it. One hands them to the other who uses his feet to roll them off the back of the tractor where they fall to the ground, which is covered in straw grass cuttings. Other soldiers roll the heavy shells away. Next, gun crew members are seen relaxing around their gun, which is hard to see against the foliage behind. The crew commander, an Army Captain, is seated on the ground reviewing documents, while a young soldier digs into the turf with a long-handled shovel. A number of 8-inch shells is arrayed on the ground. Closeup of the soldier digging with the shovel. View of other gun crew members relaxing, including some playing cards. Closeup of some card players. (Note: This gun crew is likely from the 795th or the 999th Field Artillery Battalion)
