Summary[edit]

Description
English: Caption: "Seven French tanks in action. After a heavy artillery fire to silence the enemy's guns, the mobile forts are advancing to the attack: the foremost one leaping an abandoned trench. An idea of the size of these monsters is given in the picture to the right. As it is, the present French tank is smaller, though much more effective, than the first unwieldy British invention. The paint waves on the tanks are the work of the Camouflage Corps, whose skill is such that at a distance the object treated seems to blend with the landscape. Several hundred prominent American artists recently formed an association for Camouflage to aid our own army."
