Why do you think so and why do you ask? What makes you think that the photo has something to do with "artillery observation"?
There simply were not "so many" German units operating in this area...

What are the key elements of a clear and concise research question or post ?
Element 1: Relevance
Element 2: Specificity
Element 3: Feasibility
Element 4: Originality
Element 5: Clarity
Writing a post or (scientific) paper introduction can be challenging, especially if you are not sure how to formulate a clear and concise research question. A clear question is the main focus of your post/paper, and it guides your literature review, methods, results, and discussion. In this article, we will discuss what are the key elements of a clear and concise (research) question, and how to write them in your introduction.
1: Relevance
The first element of a clear and concise (research) question is relevance. Your research question should address a significant problem or gap in your field of study, and show why it is important to answer it. You should also explain how your research question relates to the existing literature, and how it contributes to the advancement of knowledge or practice. To demonstrate relevance, you can use phrases such as "Despite the extensive research on...", "However, little is known about...", or "This study aims to fill this gap by..."
.
2: Specificity
The second element of a clear and concise research question is specificity. Your question should be focused and narrow enough to be answered within the scope of your post/paper, and avoid vague or general terms that could apply to many different topics. You should also define the key concepts, variables, and terms that you use in your research question, and specify the population, context, and timeframe of your study. To achieve specificity, you can use phrases such as "This study examines...", "The main question is...", or "The key terms are...".
3: Feasibility
The third element of a clear and concise question is feasibility. Your question should be realistic and achievable, given the resources, time, and data available to you. You should also consider the ethical, practical, and methodological implications of your question, and how you will address them in your post or paper. To ensure feasibility, you can use phrases such as "This study uses...", "The data is collected from...", or "The limitations of this study are...".
4: Originality
The fourth element of a clear and concise question is originality. Your research question should be novel and innovative, and not simply repeat or rephrase what has been done before. You should also demonstrate how your research question adds value or insight to the existing literature, and how it challenges or extends the current knowledge or practice. To show originality, you can use phrases such as "This study explores...", "The novelty of this study is...", or "This study offers a new perspective on...".
5: Clarity
The fifth element of a clear and concise research question is clarity. Your question should be clear and understandable, and not ambiguous or confusing. You should also use simple and precise language, and avoid jargon, acronyms, or technical terms that could obscure your meaning. To achieve clarity, you can use phrases such as "The research question is...", "The purpose of this study is...", or "The hypothesis of this study is...".
By following these five elements, you can write a clear and concise (research) question that will guide your post or scientific paper introduction, and set the tone and direction of your paper. Remember to revise and refine your research question as you progress with your paper, and check if it aligns with your literature review, methods, results, and discussion.

In my recent post I asked for some explanations. It would be nice if you provide me (and not only me) with a bit of information.
It might help us to help you...
