'Onze Helden'

From a Belgian Post War Commemorative History Volume

Medievil warfare in the 20th century :

wooden stakes in front of an Antwerp fort

Cranes wrecked by the Belgians

A column of Belgian troops retreating through Antwerp

Armored train firing at German positions

These photos of the siege of Antwerp are taken from 'Onze Helden' (Our Heroes) one of the many grand commemorative history volumes published immediately after the war in the 1920s.
