EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the dry and dusty plains of an uncertain European front, the final preparations for departure are underway. In this evocative image from 1918, troops and their animal counterparts, horses and mules, gather at the edge of a muddy road leading out of their base camp. The First World War is drawing to a close, and the 1st Division is readying itself for the next stage of the arduous journey. The soldiers, their faces etched with the weariness of battle-hardened men, load their supplies onto the backs of their faithful steeds. The air is thick with anticipation and a sense of purpose, as the troops take one last look around their temporary home before setting off. The animals, too, seem to understand the gravity of the situation, their ears pricked forward and eyes alert. The scene is one of quiet determination, as the troops and their animal companions prepare to leave the relative safety of the camp and face the unknown challenges that lie ahead. The sun casts long shadows across the field, and the road stretches out before them, a testament to the great endeavor that is the First World War. Despite the harsh conditions, the soldiers and their animals remain steadfast, their resolve unwavering. They know that the war may be nearing its end, but the fight is far from over. With the weight of the world on their shoulders, they march on, united in their commitment to the cause. This poignant image serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and animals who fought in the Great War, and the unbreakable bond that was formed between them on the battlefield.
