EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, just six hours before the Allied landings on the South Coast of France during World War II. Taken on August 15th, 1944, it showcases the remarkable efforts of Commando troops who had successfully captured the Isle du Levant. The image depicts a crucial aspect of war - medical supplies being unloaded onto the island from assault craft. In this poignant scene, prisoners taken by the Commandos are seen actively participating in unloading and distributing these vital medical provisions. Their involvement highlights not only their contribution to supporting their captors but also emphasizes the shared humanity amidst conflict. The photograph serves as a powerful reminder of Operation Dragoon and Operation Sitka, two pivotal military operations that played an instrumental role in liberating Europe from Nazi occupation during World War II. It encapsulates both courage and resilience exhibited by all those involved in this historic event. Preserved through time, this print offers us a glimpse into an era defined by war and conflict. As we reflect upon its significance today, it is essential to remember those who sacrificed so much for freedom and peace.
