1943 1944 Associated Forty Maintenance Official Persia Route
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1944, is one of forty-one official images documenting the Aid to Russia Route through Persia during World War Two. The image shows a group of soldiers working on a vehicle, likely engaged in maintenance to ensure the continuity of the supply line. The Aid to Russia Route, also known as the Persia and Iraq Campaign or the Second Middle Eastern Front, was a significant logistical effort to provide military and civilian supplies to the Soviet Union via a land route through Iran and the Middle East. The campaign was crucial to the Allied war effort, as it helped to alleviate pressure on the Eastern Front and enabled the Soviet Union to continue fighting against Nazi Germany. The photograph is associated with both the Middle East theater of World War Two, which lasted from 1940 to 1943, and the North West Europe theater, which began in 1944. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the immense logistical and military effort required to support the war effort on multiple fronts during this global conflict.
