Description
English: King George V inspects H.M. Gun "Boche Buster", a 14 inch naval gun on railway truck, at Marœuil, 10 km NW of Arras, France, 8th August 1918. Battle of Amiens.
Comment : Other photographs show Boche Buster, underlined, painted on the barrel, this photograph does not. Boche Buster can be faintly seem painted on the side of the front end of the box structure above the bogies. The cable running at head height along the lower side and up to the gun is a voice communication tube.

Le roi George V inspecte le H.M. Gun "Boche Buster", canon naval de 14 pouces monté sur chemin de fer, à Marœuil, à 10 km au nord-ouest d'Arras, en France, le 8 Août 1918 (durant la Bataille d'Amiens). Rem: D'autres photographies montrent Boche Buster, souligné, peint sur le canon, cette photo n'est pas le cas. Boche Buster semble peut être être légèrement peints sur le côté de l'avant au-dessus de la structure des bogies.
