EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of respite for the Anzac transport camels and their handlers of the Imperial Camel Corps during the harsh desert conditions of the First World War in Palestine, circa 1917. The Anzac section of the Imperial Camel Corps played a crucial role in the Middle Eastern campaign, providing essential transport services for troops and supplies in the arid terrain that was inhospitable to traditional horses and vehicles. The image shows a group of weary camels resting in the sand, their humps deflated from the exertion of carrying heavy loads over long distances. The camels' riders, wearing sun-bleached hats and uniforms, sit nearby, tending to their animals and taking a brief break from the relentless march. In the background, the barren landscape stretches out, dotted with the tents and equipment of the Anzac camp. The First World War saw the use of camels in warfare for the first time on a large scale, with the Imperial Camel Corps being formed in Egypt in 1914. The corps consisted of volunteers from Australia and New Zealand, who were well-suited to the challenging conditions due to their experience with camels in their respective countries. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the hardships and sacrifices endured by the Anzac soldiers and their camels during the war in the Middle East. The image captures the raw beauty of the desert landscape, as well as the determination and resilience of the men and animals who served in this unique and important military unit.
