: A Portrait of Acting Sergeant Herbert Gibson of the 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance during World War I This evocative photograph captures the intense gaze of Acting Sergeant Herbert Gibson, MM, of the 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance, Royal Army Medical Corps, during the tumultuous period of World War I. Born in September 1889, Gibson served valiantly on the battlefields of Europe, tending to the wounded and sick soldiers under his care. The image, titled "When Fritz Sends One with Your Name On It," is a poignant reminder of the perils and realities of war. The caption alludes to the fact that each soldier carried the potential threat of enemy fire, symbolized by the reference to "Fritz," a common term used by Allied soldiers to refer to the German forces. The presence of Gibson's name and military identification on the photograph adds a personal touch, emphasizing the human element of the conflict. The 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance was an essential component of the British Expeditionary Force, providing medical support and care to the troops during the war. The Royal Army Medical Corps played a vital role in ensuring the health and well-being of soldiers, often working under dangerous conditions and facing their own risks. This photograph, taken from the extensive collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the history of military medicine during World War I. It serves as a testament to the courage and dedication of soldiers like Acting Sergeant Herbert Gibson, who put their lives on the line to care for their comrades in arms. The image is not only a valuable historical document but also a poignant reminder of the human cost of war.
