EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting photograph from the personal album of an infantry lieutenant captures the harsh reality of war during the First World War in the Lorraine region. The image shows an emergency post, or cannon shelter, where soldiers from the 206th, 35th colo and 323rd regiments sought refuge during bombardments.
The exhausted faces of the French guards reflect the toll that constant danger and uncertainty took on these brave men. Their military uniforms are worn and dirty, a stark contrast to their determined expressions as they stand guard against potential threats.
The backdrop of this scene is one of destruction and chaos, with buildings reduced to rubble by enemy fire. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by those who fought in WWI, facing unimaginable horrors on a daily basis.
As we look back on this moment captured over a century ago, we honor the memory of all those who served and remember their courage in the face of adversity. May we never forget their bravery and commitment to defending their country in its time of need.
