EDITORS COMMENTS
Les Alpins Francais aux Etats-Unis; Debarques du "Rochambeau": Cent Chasseurs Francais... 1918" is a captivating photograph that captures a historic moment during the First World War. The image, created by an unknown photographer, depicts one hundred French Alpine soldiers disembarking from the ship "Rochambeau" in New York City. These soldiers had come to the United States at the request of the American government to participate in the "Campagne du Troisième Emprunt de la Liberté," or the Third Liberty Loan campaign. The photograph shows the soldiers, dressed in their military uniforms and armed with rifles, stepping off the ship and onto American soil. They are met with enthusiastic acclamations from the crowd, as evidenced by the cheering spectators lining the streets of New York. The soldiers, who had traveled across the Atlantic Ocean to aid their allies, were greeted with warmth and appreciation by the American people. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the international cooperation and unity that characterized the First World War effort. It also underscores the significant role that France played in the conflict, and the importance of the United States in providing crucial support to the Allied powers. The image is taken from "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, a Parisian publication from 1924. The photograph is a valuable historical document, providing a glimpse into a pivotal moment in world history.
