Tank Attack
The Lewis Gun was the British Army's most widely used machine-gun.
It required a team of two gunners to operate it, one to fire and one to carry ammunition and reload.
Model T Ambulance
The ambulance Model T's light weight made it well-suited for
use on the muddy and shell-torn roads in forward combat areas. If stuck in a hole, a group of soldiers could
lift one without much difficulty. By Nov.1, 1918, 4,362 Model T ambulances had been shipped overseas.
This vehicle could carry three litters or two seated patients and two more could sit with the driver. Canvas
"pockets" covered the litter handles that stuck out beyond the tailgate. Many American field service and Red
Cross volunteer drivers drove Model T ambulances, including writers Ernest Hemingway and Bret Harte and cartoonist Walt Disney.
