EDITORS COMMENTS
Leaving Boulogne 1917" is a poignant and historically significant photograph capturing the moment of departure for British troops as they bid farewell to the French port town of Boulogne on June 13, 1917. During World War I, Boulogne served as a major embarkation point for British soldiers heading to the front lines in France. The image portrays a sea of soldiers, clad in their uniforms and heavy packs, filling the streets and docks of the town. The soldiers, a mixture of young and old, look determined yet weary, their faces etched with the weight of the war and the uncertainty of what lies ahead. In the background, steamships and other vessels can be seen anchored in the harbor, ready to transport the troops across the English Channel to the battlefields. Horses and wagons are also present, adding to the chaotic scene of soldiers and civilians scurrying about, preparing for the next phase of the war. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the British soldiers during World War I. The image captures the sense of anticipation, anxiety, and determination that must have been present as these men left their families and loved ones behind to face the horrors of the battlefield. The photograph is a testament to the bravery and resilience of the soldiers, and serves as an important historical record of a pivotal moment during the war. The photograph was taken on June 13, 1917, during the Third Battle of Ypres, also known as the Battle of Passchendaele. This battle is notable for its brutal and bloody fighting, with heavy casualties on both sides. The photograph provides a glimpse into the human side of the war, offering a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the soldiers and their families during this tumultuous time in history.
