M-1939 with shield and crew

This photograph is a rare early version of the M-1939 anti-aircraft gun where the weapon still has the 100 kilogram shield attached.  While this was to give the crew a degree of protection, it was most often removed to save weight.  No date or location was given with this Soviet era photo.
