EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures the moment of departure for German troops heading to the Western Front during World War I. The image, dated 1915, depicts a crowd of German citizens, including families, friends, wives, and children, gathered at a train station to bid farewell to their loved ones. The soldiers, dressed in their military uniforms, stand tall and determined as they prepare to board the train that will transport them to the front lines. The onlookers, many with tears in their eyes, wave and call out words of encouragement and love. The scene is one of both pride and sadness, as the community comes together to support their troops and say their final goodbyes. This historical photograph offers a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during wartime and the enduring bond between families and their soldiers.
