Description AWM Caption: "Geraldton, Australia. An anti-tank gun and Vickers machine gun form a defence post at a corner of Geraldton's main street during field exercises carried out by 2nd and 4th Australian divisions." (Note: the AWM incorrectly labels the machine gun a Vickers machine gun. It is in fact a German-made MG 08. Small numbers of MG 08s were captured by Australian forces during World War I and brought back to Australia where it was put to use in Militia units)
