EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a pivotal moment during the First World War in Africa, as local men of the Cameroons Carabineers, an African colonial infantry regiment, carefully carry artillery pieces across Nloke Bridge in Cameroon on December 6, 1914. The image offers a glimpse into the global reach and impact of the Great War, which extended far beyond Europe's battlefields. The Cameroons, a region located in west central Africa, became a battleground between the German and Allied forces during the early stages of the war. The British and French, who had long coveted the area's rich natural resources, saw an opportunity to seize the territory from the Germans. The Cameroons Carabineers, made up primarily of indigenous Cameroonians, played a crucial role in the campaign, serving as porters, laborers, and soldiers. The photograph shows the men skillfully maneuvering the large guns across the bridge, which spans the unnamed river that runs through the region. The water's calm surface reflects the dense foliage of the surrounding jungle, creating a stark contrast to the heavy artillery and the determined expressions of the men. The scene is a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the African soldiers, who played a vital role in the Allied forces' eventual victory in Cameroon. This powerful image serves as a reminder of the complex and far-reaching consequences of the First World War, as well as the important contributions of colonial troops in shaping the course of world history.
