The Push: The Rifle Grenade Stunt - A Daring Feat of Bravery during World War I as Depicted on a German Field Postcard This image, titled 'The Push: The Rifle Grenade Stunt,' is a fascinating drawing on a German Field Postcard (Feldpostkarte) from World War I. The intricately detailed illustration showcases an intense moment during the conflict, featuring Acting Sergeant Herbert Gibson, MM, of the 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance, Royal Army Medical Corps. Born in September 1889, Gibson is depicted in the heat of action, skillfully pushing a rifle grenade into the muzzle of a comrade's rifle. The rifle grenade stunt was a daring tactic employed by soldiers during the war, allowing infantry units to engage the enemy with explosives from a greater distance. The technique required precise timing, coordination, and a high degree of trust between the soldiers involved. In this image, Gibson's determination and focus are palpable as he pushes the grenade into place, while his comrade steadies the rifle and prepares to aim. The drawing is a poignant reminder of the camaraderie, courage, and resourcefulness that defined the soldiers' experiences during World War I. The image, though drawn on a German postcard, underscores the shared nature of the military experience and the common risks and challenges faced by soldiers on both sides of the conflict. This historical artifact, with its intriguing story and exceptional detail, offers a unique glimpse into the past and sheds light on the regiments, military history, and the extraordinary events that unfolded during the Great War.
