EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of determination and bravery during the First World War as a British airman releases a bomb by hand from his aeroplane. Dating back to the early years of aviation warfare, between 1914 and 1918, this image showcases the rudimentary yet effective weapons used by the Allied forces against their enemies. The airman, clad in a leather flying helmet and goggles, focuses intently on his target as he drops the bomb with a firm grip. The message inscribed on the bomb, "Hun, Bulgar, Share This Ration," suggests a playful yet strategic approach to warfare, as the Allies aimed to disrupt enemy morale and supply lines. The cockpit of the biplane is visible in the background, offering a glimpse into the cramped and exposed conditions endured by the brave pilots during their daring missions in the sky. This powerful image serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the airmen during the Great War, and the innovative ways in which they employed technology to turn the tide of battle.
