EDITORS COMMENTS
Constructing Bandas at Schaedels Farm: A Place of Respite for Exhausted Soldiers in East Africa During World War I, 1917 Amidst the chaos and hardships of the First World War, a scene of tranquility unfolds at Schaedels Farm near Lindi, East Africa, in 1917. In this photograph from The On Call in Africa Collection, soldiers can be seen constructing bandas, traditional huts made of wood and branches, as part of a convalescent camp. The soldiers, weary from the rigors of war, work together to build these huts, providing a temporary shelter and a sense of normalcy amidst the unfamiliar surroundings. The use of local materials, such as timber and branches, not only reflects the ingenuity of the soldiers but also their adaptation to the African environment. Schaedels Farm served as a place of relaxation and recovery for soldiers who had been injured or suffered from tropical diseases. The peaceful setting, with its lush vegetation and gentle breeze, offered a much-needed respite from the harsh realities of war. The construction of the bandas represents a moment of cooperation and camaraderie among the soldiers, as they work together to create a space where they can rest and recuperate. This photograph captures a rare moment of tranquility during a time of great turmoil, reminding us of the human spirit's ability to find solace even in the most challenging of circumstances.
