EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of determination and courage as the Mark II tank, named Lusitania, of the 1st Tank Brigade advances through the devastated streets of Arras during the Battle of Arras in 1917. With over 50 Mark II tanks participating in this significant engagement, the tank's armored shell protected its crew from German gunfire as they pushed forward, disrupting the enemy's lines and paving the way for Allied troops. However, the tank's vulnerabilities were exposed as several were knocked out by German gunners firing armor-piercing machine gun ammunition. This image is one of 76 official photographs from the period of 1916-1917, associated with the First World War on the Western Front (1914-1918). The use of tanks in warfare was a groundbreaking innovation during this time, revolutionizing the way battles were fought and marking a turning point in the war. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the bravery and resilience of the soldiers who operated these formidable machines, and the strategic importance of their role in the Battle of Arras.
