GWB-59 – Artillery Crew
Artillery was responsible for a tremendous proportion of the destruction inflicted on the Western Front, but behind every gun were the men who had to keep it operating.
GWB-59 – Artillery Crew adds further personnel to the John Jenkins Designs Great War artillery range, allowing collectors to increase the size and activity of a battery position.
Gun crews worked as teams. Each man had an assigned role, and efficiency depended upon the detachment performing those tasks in the correct sequence. During sustained bombardments, this process could continue for long periods as ammunition was brought forward and expended.
GWB-59 can be incorporated among shell preparation figures, standing crew and the battery NCO to build a much more complete scene.
Rather than concentrating everyone immediately around the weapon, spreading the crew across the platform and ammunition area gives a stronger impression of the scale of work involved.
Available from The Military Workshop – a detailed John Jenkins Designs artillery crew set for expanding the manpower behind the guns of the Western Front.
