EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the chaos and hardships of the First World War, a sense of tranquility and order could be found at the well-kept garden of the Allied army camp in Etaples, northern France. In this August 1918 photograph, a neat and tidy lawn, adorned with vibrant flower beds, stretches out before a wooden fence. Behind the fence, soldiers in uniforms, some wearing kilts, tend to the garden's production, while others stand guard as pickets. The garden, a testament to the dedication and discipline of the Allied troops, was a source of pride and respite from the harsh realities of war. The garden's directorate, responsible for its maintenance, ensured that the garden remained a neat and orderly oasis amidst the chaos of the camp. The soldiers, who hailed from various Allied nations, took turns maintaining the garden, providing a sense of camaraderie and unity among the troops. The garden's beauty and productivity served a practical purpose as well, as it provided fresh produce for the camp's kitchens. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the daily life of the Allied army during the First World War, showcasing the resilience and determination of the soldiers who tended to the garden and the garden itself, a symbol of hope and normalcy amidst the chaos of war.
