EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of triumph for the 5th Royal Berkshire Regiment of the 12th Division as they stand victorious in front of a Mark V (Female) tank of the 4th Battalion, shortly after its capture in the town of Meaulte, France, on August 22, 1918. During the First World War, the Western Front was the setting for some of the most intense and brutal battles in history. The use of tanks, like the one depicted here, revolutionized warfare and provided a significant advantage on the battlefield. The 12th Division, part of the British Expeditionary Force, played a crucial role in the final Allied offensive of the war. The capture of Meaulte was a key victory in the Battle of Amiens, which marked the beginning of the end for the German forces in France. The Mark V tank, also known as the "Mother," was the most widely used tank in the British Army during World War I. Its distinctive shape and armored exterior made it a formidable weapon against enemy lines. The women in the photograph are members of the Women's Auxiliary Army Corps (WAAC), who served in various support roles during the war. Their presence in this image underscores the important contribution of women to the war effort, both on the home front and in the trenches. The transport trucks in the background suggest the logistical support required to keep the British forces moving and supplied during the relentless advance. This historical photograph offers a poignant reminder of the sacrifices and triumphs of the men and women who served in the First World War. It is a testament to the courage and resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity and a powerful symbol of the enduring legacy of the Great War.
