EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of the 6th Greek Division's arrival at Salonika (Thessaloniki) during the First World War, in September 1916. The men, dressed in their military uniforms and armed with rifles, are seen disembarking from a ship onto a small boat, which is being pulled to the shore by ropes. The rugged coastline and the port facilities of Salonika can be seen in the background, with buildings and other structures adding to the bustling scene of war time activity. The 6th Greek Division was one of the key forces in the Salonika Front, which was a major theater of the First World War, fought between the Allied Powers and the Central Powers in the region of Macedonia, Greece. The arrival of Greek troops in Salonika marked a significant turning point in the campaign, as they joined the Allied forces in their efforts to counter the Central Powers' advance. The image offers a glimpse into the harsh realities of war, as the soldiers prepare to leave their ship and face the unknown challenges that await them on the shore. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and women who served in the armed forces during this pivotal period in world history. The photograph is a powerful testament to the bravery and determination of the Greek soldiers, who played a crucial role in the outcome of the Salonika Front. It also highlights the importance of naval transport in the conduct of military operations during the First World War, as troops and supplies were often transported long distances by sea to support ground forces.
