EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of innovation and deception during the final stages of the First World War. Taken in 1918 in the northern French town of Le Catelet, the image shows a group of Australian soldiers from the 4th Divisional Engineers carefully lifting a dummy tank off a truck. The dummy tank, a clever decoy designed to mislead the Germans about Allied troop movements, was an essential part of the strategic diversionary tactics employed by the Allies in the closing months of the war. The Australian soldiers, dressed in their distinctive 1st Australian Division uniforms and carrying their gear, are seen working in unison to transport the dummy tank to its new location. The tank's intricate camouflage pattern, designed to blend in with the surrounding terrain, is clearly visible, highlighting the meticulous attention to detail that went into creating this convincing deception. The use of dummy tanks was a common tactic during the Western Front, with both sides employing them to divert enemy attention and resources away from their true objectives. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the soldiers on the front lines, as they sought to outmaneuver their opponents and bring an end to the Great War. The image is a poignant reminder of the bravery and determination of the Australian soldiers who served in France during the First World War, and the innovative ways in which they adapted to the challenges of the battlefield to achieve their objectives.
