Summary
| Description |
Français : Un bouclier de tireur d'élite rouillé, placé dans une impasse dans l'une des tranchées utilisées pendant la Première Guerre mondiale lors de la bataille de la crête de Vimy. Les boucliers de tireur d'élite étaient utilisés pour viser en toute sécurité pendant le combat et pour éviter les tirs entrants (tireurs d'élite) de l'ennemi. Le bouclier et les tranchées se trouvent au parc commémoratif national du Canada à Vimy, également connu sous le nom de lieu historique national du Canada de la crête de Vimy, près de la petite ville de Vimy, en France.
English: A rusty sniper shield, placed at a dead end in one of the trenches used during World War I at the Battle of Vimy Ridge.

The shield and trenches can be found at the Canadian National Vimy Memorial Park, also known as the Vimy Ridge National Historic Site of Canada, near the small town of Vimy, France. |
