EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the bustling chaos of a Portuguese port, thousands of eager yet solemn soldiers gather to embark on a journey that would take them far from home and into the heart of the First World War. In this evocative photograph from the Mary Evans Prints Online archive, Portuguese troops are seen boarding a ship destined for France, their faces a mix of excitement, determination, and trepidation. The crowd that has gathered on the dockside to bid them farewell waves and cheers, their expressions a testament to the pride and support the people of Portugal held for their brave soldiers. The soldiers themselves, dressed in their uniforms and carrying their gear, are a sea of movement and energy as they make their way onto the ship. This poignant moment in history, captured between 1916 and 1918, serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by the Portuguese military during the Great War. With the ship's siren blaring and the cheers of the crowd ringing in their ears, these brave men set sail for an uncertain future, ready to defend their country and contribute to the Allied effort in France.
