EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment a weary war horse is brought ashore in Boulogne, France, during the early days of World War One in 1914. Thousands of horses were procured from every corner of Britain to serve with the British Forces during this global conflict. These equine soldiers played a crucial role in the war effort, carrying supplies and ammunition, transporting the wounded, and pulling artillery guns. The horses were brought to the European continent in large numbers, often making the perilous journey across the English Channel. In this image, we see a horse being carefully hoisted off a ship using a crane, its tired legs dangling in the air as it makes its way to solid ground. The scene is a poignant reminder of the vital role these animals played in the war, and the sacrifices they made alongside the human soldiers. The horses were an essential part of the British military machine during WWI, and their contribution should not be underestimated. They endured harsh conditions, long hours, and the constant threat of danger, just like their human counterparts. This photograph offers a glimpse into the logistical challenges of bringing the horses to the front lines, and the care and attention given to ensure their safe arrival. As we reflect on the history of World War One, it is important to remember the role of the horses in the conflict. This photograph is a poignant reminder of their bravery and sacrifice, and the vital role they played in the war effort.
