|Description=Vickers machine-guns of [[:en:Middlesex Regiment|2nd Middlesex Regiment]], 3rd Division, fire in support of troops crossing the Maas-Schelde Canal at Lille-St. Hubert (St Huilbrechts), 20 September 1944. Two interesting features are that the troops are wearing MK III [[United Kingdom|British]] "Turtle" helmets, which were introduced shortly before D-Day. Additionally, the gunners are firing at long-range targets, as shown by the extreme elevation of the barrels.
