Car being towed, France, during World War I. This image shows a car being towed through thick mud. As the car in front tries to pull the other free, a soldier lends a hand by pulling on the tow rope. A group of soldiers standing next to the immovable car add their weight to the struggle. There appears to be a camp directly behind the road they are on. The car in front has the number 'M25446' painted on the bonnet.<br><p>Extreme weather conditions, and the floods and mud that ensued, created tremendous problems and hazards for the soldiers at the Front.<br>
