French submarine and features of torpedoes, in World War I

French armament men display a torpedo suspended by a sling from a hoist on a dock in World War 1. They rotate it around for the camera. A submarine is seen tied up to an adjacent dock in the background. The next scene shows the bubble wake of a compressed air driven torpedo seen from a boat tracking it as it moves through the water. Next sequence is taken from aboard a French submarine underway on the surface. A structure and point of land is seen. Then, officers and sailors are seen on the boat's deck. Scene then reverts to the torpedo on the dock, where closeup of its counter-rotating propellers are shown while being tested with a compressed air motor. Men show how the horizontal and vertical fins can be adjusted to control the path of the torpedo. An exploding cutter is shown, designed to penetrate defensive nets. A man screws the cutter into the nose of the torpedo. (WWI; WW1)

Allied artillery barrage decimates German lines during Battle of the Somme in World War I

Remarkable, rare, on-scene views on the receiving end of a British and French Allied artillery barrage, shot by German photographer at the German frontlines, during the battle of the Somme, in World War 1. Allied artillery shells fired at German positions begin striking along the German lines and cause some German soldiers to abandon their trenches. Fairly close range view of shells striking in middle of the German trenches. As the barrage by British and French artillery increases in intensity, more German soldiers are seen running towards the rear to seek better protection and escape the bombardment. Two huge explosions cause more German soldiers to flee the area. (The Allied gunners are clearly zeroed in on the German positions.) The shelling continues with heavier guns causing even larger explosions. More German troops flee the area. Remote and close views of the relentless artillery barrage as it devastates the German lines. (WWI; WW1)
