EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the early 20th century, specifically to the Belgian armed forces in 1914. The image showcases a unique aspect of military life during World War One - the use of dogs for light haulage purposes. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, we witness a Belgian soldier displaying his unwavering bond with his faithful gun dogs. The caption accompanying this published picture beautifully encapsulates their relationship: "The Belgian soldier never allows his gun dogs to go hungry while he has a bite to share with them". In an era marked by conflict and turmoil, it is heartwarming to see such compassion amidst chaos. Taken during the Belgium army's retreat to Antwerp, this photograph captures not only the resilience of soldiers but also highlights the crucial role animals played on the frontlines. The cobbled road serves as a reminder of the challenging conditions these brave men and their loyal companions faced daily. Tom Grant skillfully immortalizes this poignant moment through his lens, allowing us a glimpse into history that might have otherwise been forgotten. This print serves as both a testament to human-animal bonds forged in times of war and an ode to those who selflessly served their countries during one of humanity's darkest chapters. As we admire this remarkable piece from Memory Lane Prints, let us remember and honor all those who fought valiantly alongside our soldiers - even if they had four legs instead of two.
