One of the most numerous and important weapons in the inventory of the Fußartillerie (foot artillery) was the Model 1910 21cm Mörser (commonly known among troops as 'Der Mörser'). When the war began in 1914, the German army could deploy 216 of these large howitzers. Due to the large projectile and impressive range, these howitzers quickly became the standard indirect fire weapon. Like many large-caliber weapons of that time, the 21cm Mörser had to be transported by motor vehicle in two loads because of its weight. In this photo, a crew of a 21cm Mörser 10 poses next to their Mörser, with the early short 2.57m (8 ft 5 in) L/12 barrel. The 114 kg (252 lbs) high-explosive projectile is in the loading tray, which was manually swung up to the same height as the chamber when the barrel was leveled.
