EDITORS COMMENTS
This oblique aerial view photograph, taken circa 1918, captures the Saint Omer area in the Pas de Calais region of Northern France during the First World War. The image provides a unique perspective of the rural countryside that was dramatically altered by the conflict. In the foreground, a network of muddy fields and trenches can be seen, evidence of the intense military activity that took place in this region. The small town of Saint Omer, with its distinctive church and bell tower, is visible in the upper left corner. During the 1910s, the use of military air reconnaissance became increasingly important for gathering intelligence and observing enemy movements. The Royal Flying Corps (RFC), the air arm of the British Army, played a crucial role in this effort. This photograph likely depicts a reconnaissance flight by an RFC squadron over the Saint Omer area. The image is a poignant reminder of the significant impact of the First World War on the rural landscapes of Northern France and the vital role that aerial observation played in the conduct of the war.
