EDITORS COMMENTS
August 1939: A Polish Infanteaman in Full War Kit, Ready for the Battlefields of World War II This evocative photograph captures the image of a Polish infantryman, fully equipped for the rigors of war, as published in the Illustrated London News in August 1939. The soldier stands tall and proud, his expression determined and focused, as he holds a shovel in one hand and grips the stock of his rifle with the other. His helmet sits squarely on his head, shielding him from the elements and potential projectiles. The Polish infantryman was known for his exceptional endurance and agility, able to make long marches without difficulty and preferring hand-to-hand combat over long-range engagements. His kit reflects this, with ample supplies and practical tools such as the shovel, which could be used for digging foxholes or fortifications. As the world teetered on the brink of war, the Polish army was one of the most prepared and well-equipped forces in Europe. Yet, despite their readiness, they were ultimately overrun by the invading German forces in the opening weeks of World War II. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the Polish military during this tumultuous time in history. The photograph, which is part of the extensive collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the bravery and resilience of the soldiers who fought in the wars of the 20th century. It also serves as a reminder of the importance of military preparation and the sacrifices made by those who serve their countries in times of conflict.
