EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of heightened alertness and tension among Austro-Hungarian troops of the Landwehr Reserve Batallion in Volhynia, north-west Ukraine, during the First World War. The date is October 14, 1916, and the soldiers are poised for action against an unseen enemy. The ominous presence of gas masks hanging from their belts and the hand grenade at the forefront of the image serve as stark reminders of the chemical warfare that was becoming increasingly common on the eastern front. The officer in the background, with binoculars raised to his eyes, scans the horizon for any signs of the enemy advance. The gas alarm, with its piercing siren, blares in the background, warning the soldiers to prepare for a potential gas attack. The men, dressed in their heavy winter uniforms, stand ready to respond to the call to arms, their expressions a mix of determination and apprehension. This powerful image offers a glimpse into the harsh realities of trench warfare during the First World War and the constant threat of chemical attacks that hung over the soldiers on the eastern front.
