EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, hailing from the year 1886, showcases the French Civil Engineering Corps in the midst of constructing a temporary wooden bridge during a training mission. The scene unfolds on the banks of a tranquil body of water, where soldiers meticulously assemble the bridge using staves and brushwood. Their determined expressions and focused demeanor convey the sense of purpose and discipline that defined the Corps. The bridge, a testament to their engineering prowess, is designed to be both functional and durable, despite its temporary nature. Each soldier wields a hammer, driving nails into the wooden staves to secure them in place. The bridge's structure is reinforced with additional brushwood, ensuring it can withstand the weight of soldiers and equipment. The scene is reminiscent of a raft being built on water, with the soldiers' boots submerged in the shallow water. The natural surroundings provide a picturesque backdrop, with trees and foliage lining the banks. The soldiers work in unison, their collective efforts resulting in the successful construction of the bridge. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the intricacies of civil engineering in the late 19th century. It also highlights the importance of training and teamwork in the military, as these soldiers hone their skills to build structures that would serve them well in various missions and campaigns.
