EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment during the First World War as New Zealand gunners diligently load a limber with ammunition near the northern French town of Albert, in September 1916. The image offers a glimpse into the harsh realities of trench warfare, as these brave soldiers work tirelessly to ensure their artillery pieces are well-supplied with explosives. The New Zealand Expeditionary Force played a significant role in the Allied offensive during the Battle of the Somme, which took place from July to November 1916. The campaign aimed to break through the German defenses and push them back from the French border. The New Zealand artillery units, such as the one depicted in this photograph, were essential in providing crucial fire support for the infantry. The scene shows the gunners carefully maneuvering sacks of ammunition onto the limber, a type of cart used for transporting supplies. The horses, which pull the limber, appear calm and focused, despite the intense atmosphere of the battlefield. The soldiers, dressed in their uniforms and armed with shovels, work together in a coordinated effort to keep the artillery in operation. This powerful image not only highlights the unwavering determination and teamwork of the New Zealand gunners but also underscores the immense logistical challenges faced by the Allied forces during the Great War. The soldiers' dedication to their duty, even amidst the chaos and danger of the battlefield, serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during this pivotal period in world history.
