EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures Lt Col P W O Gorman, the Senior Medical Officer (SMO) of the British Army in East Africa during World War I, in 1917. The image portrays Gorman in his pith helmet and shorts, embodying the unique uniform of the colonial medical officers who served in the African theatre of the war. The First World War, also known as the Great War, marked a significant turning point in military history, with the involvement of millions of soldiers from various countries. In East Africa, the war was characterized by its harsh terrain, extreme climate, and the challenges of maintaining the health and wellbeing of the troops. Gorman, a dedicated and experienced medical officer, played a crucial role in ensuring the health and welfare of the British forces in East Africa. The SMO was responsible for organizing and managing medical services, including the establishment and maintenance of hospitals, the provision of medical supplies, and the training of medical personnel. The pith helmet, a symbol of the colonial era, protected Gorman from the intense African sun. The shorts, worn for comfort in the hot climate, contrast sharply with the formal attire commonly associated with military officers. This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of a senior medical officer serving in the East African theatre of World War I, highlighting the unique challenges and conditions faced by those who served in this remote and challenging environment.
