Two soldiers from the 15th MG Coy posing for a photograph with a Vickers Machine gun. Its key features are the heavy tripod on which it mounted, the right hand belt feed of ammunition in canvas belts, and the cylindrical jacket over the barrel which is filled with water to aid cooling of the barrel. This facilitated the very high rates of sustained fire this gun was renowned for.
