摘要

本文讨论了Livens大型画廊火焰喷射器的发展，这是一种大型的英国火焰喷射器，在1916年的索姆河战役中用于对抗德国战壕。这个秘密武器建在无人区下面的地下隧道里，试图利用科技突破德军的防御，减少英军的伤亡。火焰喷射器是第一次世界大战中最有效的火焰喷射器，但被证明过于不灵活和昂贵而无法广泛使用。

Beyond Recall: Searching for the Remains of a British Secret Weapon of World War I

Abstract This article discusses the development of the Livens Large Gallery Flame Projector, a massive British flamethrower that was used against German trenches in the Battle of the Somme in 1916. Built underground within tunnels below No Man’s Land, this secret weapon was an attempt to use technology to break through German defences and reduce British casualties. The flame projector was the most effective flamethrower developed in WWI, but proved to be too inflexible and expensive to be widely used.
