Minefield
Not sure where to post this, I'll try here. I assume it's a minefield sign.

Re: Minefield
I don't think it is a minefield sign, move slowly would seem a better idea

I would guess a high sniper risk zone. 'Nice' picture though.

I never thought about that, you could be right.

Re: Minefield
Its a great pic, and I can relate to not being sure where to post it. This section was developed for photos that did not quite fit elsewhere. Only sometimes we come across such pics that don't fit under any of the established threads.

Perhaps, Bill, with a title change we could use this thread for Random photos?

Re: Minefield
My guess is that it's a warning for a zone in the line that the enemy (Japanese or German) have zeroed in with mortars n' machineguns.
