EDITORS COMMENTS
In the mud-splattered trenches of the Western Front during World War I, two French soldiers take a moment from their grim reality to discuss the sending of gifts and mascots to their comrades. The year is 1917, and the harsh realities of trench warfare have become a daily routine for these soldiers. One soldier, with a blue uniform and puttees, leans over to his companion, both clad in helmets and holding rifles with fixed bayonets. The trench is lined with barbed wire, a constant reminder of the danger that lurks just beyond their makeshift shelter. As they chat, they reminisce about the items they have received from loved ones back home - a photo, a letter, perhaps a small trinket. They long for the comforts of home and the simple pleasures that seem so far away. The soldier on the right, with a thoughtful expression, wonders aloud if they should send a mascot to boost morale. The other soldier nods in agreement, and they continue their conversation, their spirits momentarily lifted by the thought of bringing joy to their fellow soldiers. This poignant cartoon, created in 1917, offers a glimpse into the daily life of soldiers during the First World War. It serves as a reminder of the human connection that endured even in the most challenging of circumstances, and the simple things that brought comfort and hope to those on the front lines.
