EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the chaos and turmoil of the First World War, a moment of respite and compassion could be found at the British Veterinary Hospital in France. Established in 1915, this vital institution was dedicated to the care and treatment of the thousands of horses, mules, and other animals that served in the war effort. In this poignant image from 1916, a team of dedicated veterinary staff are seen tending to a horse suffering from a debilitating skin disease. The horse, after receiving a soothing warm bath, is now being meticulously scrubbed to alleviate the symptoms of its affliction. The tenderness and care displayed by the veterinary team are a testament to the unwavering commitment to the wellbeing of these animals, who played an essential role in the war effort. The hospital was equipped with the latest medical facilities and staffed by skilled veterinary surgeons, farriers, and grooms. They treated a wide range of injuries and illnesses, from gunshot wounds and fractures to diseases such as tetanus and anthrax. The hospital also provided a vital service in training and educating veterinary students and officers in the care and treatment of military animals. This image serves as a powerful reminder of the compassion and dedication shown towards animals during a time of war. The British Veterinary Hospital in France was a beacon of hope and care for the countless animals that served alongside the British and Allied forces during the First World War.
