FoB115             “Marching Machine Gunner”

                                 Carrying his FM24/29 Light Machine Gun another Poilu looks out for the enemy.

                                 This robust and reliable weapon was partly derived from the M1918 Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR) and served the French Army for more than 50 years!

                                 It was the standard squad-level automatic weapon and saw plenty of action in WW2 as well as postwar in Indo China and Algeria.
