Summary

One of four M-12 115 mm self-propelled howitzers assigned to Battery B of the 258th Field Artillery regiment stands ready to go into action, attacking a bunker along Germany's Siegfried Line, in late 1944 in this photo take by former Solder Charlie Brown, a Olean, N.Y. resident. Brown was a member of the unit-- a part of the New York National Guard-- in 1944 and 1945. The M-12 was often used to attack bunkers and pillboxes. (Courtesy Mr. Charles Brown)

Large WWII photograph collection made with aid of image recognition.

A very large dataset of various big guns, howitzers, mortars, columbiads, all types of canon-like things - everything besides machine guns and rockets. This collection as well as all massive collections on Picryl.com required two steps: First, we picked a set to train AI vision to recognize cannon artillery, and after that, ran all 25M+ images in our database through our image recognition network. All media in the collection is in the public domain. There is no limitation on the dataset usage - educational, scientific, or commercial.
