Can You Tell Which Part of These Ruins Is Camouflage?
Caption: A cleverly camouflaged observation tower which contains slits for maneuvering real machine guns
extracted text (Extract Text)
THE French invented the word camou-
flage, but the Germans are fast be-
coming past masters of the art—as wit-
ness the ac-
companying
photograph.
Between two
shell battered
walls of the
church at
Moncy-aux-
Bois they built
a concrete ob-
servation tower
with slits for
machine gun
operations. So
cleverly colored
and arranged
to fit the gen-
eral landscape
was this little
addition, that
from a distance
it looked like a part of the original ruin.
