EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment British troops land wooden stakes and fascines at the port of Salonika, Greece, during the First World War on 14 November 1915. The soldiers, dressed in heavy coats and hats, work diligently to unload the bundles of wood from the ship's hold and transport them to the shore. Fascines are bundles of branches, twigs, or brushwood used in military engineering to reinforce earthen defences and stabilize slopes. The wooden stakes, driven into the ground, would serve as an additional layer of protection against enemy attacks. The port of Salonika was a crucial supply line for the Allied forces during the Balkan Campaign and the subsequent Macedonian Front of World War I. The troops were brought in to support the Serbian Army, which was under heavy pressure from the Central Powers. The arrival of British reinforcements marked a turning point in the campaign, as they brought much-needed resources and expertise to the battlefield. Despite the challenging conditions, the soldiers work efficiently, their faces set with determination and focus. The wooden stakes and fascines are essential components of their defensive strategy, and their successful landing at Salonika would prove crucial in the defense of the city and the eventual Allied victory in the region. This image is a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the British military during the First World War.
