EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image, captured by the renowned Illustrated London News in December 7, 1916, documents the valiant charge of the Canadians at Ypres during the First World War. The scene depicts a group of Canadian soldiers, determined and resolute, as they courageously advance against the enemy lines. The previous month had seen the Germans successfully capture trenches held by the Allies, but the Canadians were determined to reclaim their lost ground. The splendid fighting quality of the Canadian Expeditionary Force was on full display as they charged forward, weapons at the ready and spirits high. The muddy terrain and harsh conditions of the battlefield did little to deter these brave soldiers, who pressed onward with unwavering resolve. The charge at Ypres was a pivotal moment in the war effort, demonstrating the tenacity and fighting spirit of the Canadian forces. The success of this operation boosted morale and helped turn the tide in favor of the Allies. This powerful image serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the brave men and women who fought in the Great War, and the indomitable spirit that defined the Canadian military during this time.
