EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken in 1916 during the First World War, captures the harsh realities of life on the front lines. The image shows Scottish soldiers, clad in their iconic kilts, taking a much-needed break from the relentless march of war. In the foreground, a line of water tanks, or 'butts,' is being transported by horses and mules to quench the thirst of the weary troops. The muddy ground and somber expressions on the faces of the soldiers serve as a poignant reminder of the hardships they endured. The travelling water butts were an essential component of the logistical support system during the First World War. With the trenches often located far from any permanent water sources, these portable tanks provided a vital means of transporting water to the front lines. The soldiers would fill their canteens from the butts, ensuring they could stay hydrated in the midst of the chaos and danger of battle. The image also highlights the camaraderie and resilience of the soldiers, as they work together to transport the heavy water butts and offer each other a moment of rest. Despite the challenging conditions, they remain focused on their mission, their determination and courage shining through in this powerful photograph. This poignant image offers a glimpse into the daily struggles of the soldiers during the First World War, and serves as a testament to their bravery and resilience in the face of adversity.
