EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Happy Warriors: Canadians returning from a successful attack, First World War, c1916" captures a moment of jubilation amidst the grim backdrop of war. Taken in the early 20th century, this image showcases a group of Canadian troops on the Western Front during World War I. The soldiers, dressed in their military uniforms and donning helmets, are seen standing atop a lorry truck as it traverses through an unknown location. With beaming smiles on their faces and arms raised high in celebration, these brave men were asked to cheer for the camera. This practice was not uncommon during that time as it served as both propaganda and relief for those involved in the war effort. The photograph exudes a sense of pride and camaraderie among these warriors who have just returned from a victorious battle. Their waving gestures symbolize triumph over adversity while also reflecting their deep connection to their country and fellow comrades. Preserved within the pages of "The Great World War: A History", edited by Frank A Mumby, this historical snapshot offers us a glimpse into one small but significant moment during this tumultuous period in history. It serves as a reminder of the resilience and bravery displayed by countless individuals who fought valiantly for their nations during World War I.
