I might be a little fuzzy on my fuzzy photos of old weapons, but I believe Company A was "stopping an advance" here with a Browning M1917.

The crew-served, belt-fed, water-cooled machine gun came into service late in World War I, and was a part of the American weapons selection into Vietnam. Depending on the model, it could shot between 450 to 600 rounds per minute.

College kids, amirite?

That the cars are just ... there ... in the background amuses me. Unfortunately there's not enough for me here to say definitively where Company A's "line" is.
