Here's a possible name. Wicklow News-Letter and County Advertiser - Saturday 28 October 1916:

Bomb, and Acting-Sergt. A. Baker, clerk. R.F.A., Ballincollig, was found not guilty at court-martial at Cork on charges of having applied £5, the property of his commanding officer to liis own use, suppressed correspondence, applied to his own account moneys paid him for the purchase a wreath, and being unfit for duty owing to indulgence in drink.

Which one has the guilty innocent look?

There are still Barracks buildings at Ballincollig, a former cavalry barracks Streetview, but I don't see this building.

And in the same newspaper on March 18th:
Saturday 18 March 1916:

A protest against the action the Crown in remanding again and again Corporal J. W. Brodie. R.F.A., Ballincollig, on charge of bigamously marrying Hanna McCarthy was made by Mr. O’Driscoll, solicitor, at a Court in Bandon. Accused was again remanded.

I spent four years in Ballincollig (1 FAR) I don't remember the building in the background, or anything resembling it.

Not Ballincollig in 1916, but the 30th Reserve, RFA the previous year. Hull Daily Mail - Wednesday 18 August 1915:

ARTILLERYMAN'S DYING CHILD. Thomas Henry Keeley, 31, of Sultan street, Camberwell, driver in the 30th Reserve Battery of the Royal Field Artillery, was charged with being an absentee from Ins corps since Sunday last. When arrested by P.C. Hansford, the prisoner said the reason he did not back was that had a child lying very ill in Belgrave Hospital. Mr Biron committed the prisoner to await military escort. The prisoner, mentioning that the child might die at any moment, asked that he might allowed to visit the hospital before he was handed over to the military authorities. " We will try and manage that for you" replied Biron. His worship gave instructions the police accordingly.

Aircraft ( both of them ) are B-26 Marauder bombers, built by the Glenn L. Martin Company at Baltimore, MD. A very tricky aircraft to learn to fly, but tough and effective in combat. The most famous surviving example of the type is "Flak-Bait", which is currently ( April 2015 ) under restoration at the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum's Udvar-Hazy Center at Chantilly, VA.

Ed Dempsey Thank you

These are actually Douglas A-20 Havoc aircraft (likely A-20B). The identifying features in this photo are the fully glazed nose on the aircraft in the background (only the nose cone was glazed on the Martin B-26 Marauder), and the extended carburetor scoop on the leading edge of the engine cowling (typical of the A-20B) of the aircraft in the foreground. (The Martin B-26 Marauder typically featured TWO scoops on each engine cowling at the 11 O'Clock and 2 O'Clock positions) See: 131st Bomb Wing (USAF) www.131bw.ang.af.mil/shared/media/photodb/photos/2013/06/...

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called WorldWar, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

The howitzer is the ubiquitous Vickers designed and built BL 6 inch (152mm) 26 cwt. (hundredweight) Mk. 1 field howitzer.

I have been really impressed by going through this awesome blog. reviews amazon dog beds

An incendiary bulletin through one of those tanks does not bear thinking about.

Such brave souls. I can't even imagine firing a Browning at a Japanese or German fighter... These guys will always have my humble respect.

So much for digital photography. Ha.
