EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of camaraderie and military strategic planning between two distinguished generals of the Allied forces during the First World War. The image features General Maurice-Paul-Emmanuel Sarrail of the French Army (1856-1929) and Sir Bryan Thomas Mahon of the British Army (1862-1930), as they leave the review ground at Lembet Camp in Salonika, Macedonia on the 12th of April 1916. General Sarrail, a decorated military leader who had previously served in Algeria and Indochina, had taken command of the French forces in Salonika in 1915. He was known for his strong leadership and determination to push the Central Powers back from the region. General Mahon, on the other hand, had a long and distinguished military career, having served in the Sudan, South Africa, and India before the First World War. He had taken command of the 1st Cavalry Division in Salonika in 1915. The two generals are seen here in the midst of a military review, assessing the readiness of their troops for the ongoing campaign against the Central Powers in Macedonia. Their shared gaze and serious expressions convey the gravity of the situation and the importance of their strategic alliance. The photograph is a testament to the unity and collaboration between the Allied forces during the First World War, as they worked together to defend their territories and ultimately, secure victory. This powerful image is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers on both sides during the conflict, and the crucial role that military leaders played in shaping the course of the war. The photograph was taken in 1916, during a pivotal moment in the Salonika Front, and remains an important historical record of the First World War era.
