This artillery officer uses the feldfernsprecher 33 (FF33) field telephone of the German military forces of WWII. Introduced in 1933 as a modern replacement for older styles dating from the First World War, the FF33 was a general-purpose field telephone designed for wired communications. It could also be connected to various radio sets to act as a remote handset. The complete telephone weighed almost 13 pounds and was housed in a Bakelite case carried on a leather shoulder strap. Each telephone unit included a press to talk (PTT) handset, switchboard patch cable, generator crank, 1.5-volt battery, and internal framework for the telephone components. The simplest setup was point to point, requiring two sets, but several could be hooked up to communicate with a command post, and up to 20 units could be linked by a switchboard. Headphones (kopfhörer) and a throat microphone (kehlkopfmikrofon) could be used with the telephone when it was operated by switchboard operators.
