EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time during the First World War, as French soldiers of a troop ship wait anxiously to disembark and join the International Expeditionary Force stationed at Thessaloniki, Greece. Thessaloniki, also known as Salonica or Salonika, served as a crucial base of operations for the Allied Powers on the Macedonian Front. The year is circa 1916, and the soldiers can be seen huddled together on the deck of the ship, their expressions a mix of anticipation and apprehension. The troop ship, a vital means of transportation and transport for the troops, is docked in the harbor, ready to unload its human cargo. The soldiers, dressed in their uniforms and armed with their gear, are the embodiment of the thousands of men who made their way to Thessaloniki to fight in the war. The image offers a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers during this pivotal period in world history. Thessaloniki, with its rich history and cultural significance, provided a backdrop to the larger conflict, and the arrival of these soldiers marked a critical moment in the struggle against the Central Powers on the Macedonian Front.
