German 8,8-cm Anti-Aircraft (Flak) Motorized Heavy Battery, 1918.


(German Anti-Aircraft Gun System, WWI)

Possibly it is the Heavy Motorized Battery (Flak) Antiaircraft No. 8. See, on the first tractor, the yellow emblem with wings and with the number 8, instead of the head of an eagle.

***************

Posiblemente se trate de la Batería Motorizada Pesada (Flak) Antiaérea Nº 8. Véase, en el primer tractor, el emblema amarillo con unas alas y con la cifra 8, en lugar de la cabeza de un águila.
