EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures a moment of respite during the harsh realities of the First World War, as two Australian soldiers draw water from the village pump in Fleurbaix, northern France, in May 1916. The wet cobblestone street reflects the persistent rain that had drenched the region, adding to the somber atmosphere of the war-torn village. The soldiers, weary from the rigors of battle, focus intently on their task, their uniforms heavy with water and mud. The scene is observed by two curious little boys, their wide eyes fixed on the soldiers as they fill their buckets at the pump. The boys, oblivious to the horrors of war, are drawn to the strange sight of these tall, uniformed men in their midst. The soldiers, in turn, seem to momentarily forget their surroundings, offering the boys a small smile and a wave as they go about their daily chore. This poignant image serves as a reminder of the human element of war, where even in the midst of conflict, simple moments of connection and interaction can still occur. The village pump in Fleurbaix, once a mundane part of everyday life, becomes a symbol of the resilience and endurance of both the soldiers and the local community during the Great War.
