EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures a moment of care and compassion during the chaotic and challenging times of the First World War. The image, believed to have been taken at one of the military hospitals in Reading, Berkshire, in 1916, shows a soldier in uniform being transported on a basketwork trolley by a colleague. The hospital grounds, with their lush lawn, shrubs, and flowers, provide a stark contrast to the harsh realities of the war. The patient, likely suffering from injuries or illness, is being gently pushed along the path, his expression one of quiet endurance. The basketwork trolley, a common form of transport for patients during this time, is a testament to the resourcefulness and ingenuity of the medical staff. The scene is reminiscent of a workhouse yard, yet the soldiers' uniforms and the medical setting remind us that this is not a place of punishment or poverty, but a hospital, a place of healing and care. The camaraderie between the two soldiers, one pushing the trolley and the other being transported, speaks to the bonds formed during the war and the importance of friendship and support in the face of adversity. This photograph offers a glimpse into the history of military hospitals during the First World War and the dedication of the medical staff to the care of their patients. It is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers and the importance of medical care during times of conflict.
