EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures the bravery and compassion of the Red Cross during World War I. Taken in 1914, it shows a Red Cross ambulance traversing through the dense Forest of Laigne in France, carrying wounded soldiers to safety. The image is a testament to the tireless efforts of these dedicated medics who risked their lives to provide aid and comfort to those injured on the battlefield. The scene showcases an early version of an ambulance, drawn by horses, highlighting the primitive nature of medical transportation at that time. A group of men can be seen accompanying the wagon, presumably soldiers themselves or perhaps additional medical personnel assisting with this crucial task. The forest setting adds an eerie atmosphere to the photograph, reminding us that even amidst nature's tranquility, war's devastation was never far away. The wounded soldiers inside the ambulance are not visible but their presence is felt through this solemn composition. This historic snapshot serves as a powerful reminder of both human suffering and resilience during times of conflict. It pays tribute to all those who selflessly served under the banner of Red Cross during World War I and honors their unwavering commitment towards saving lives on and off the battlefield.
