EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the harsh realities of the Western Front during World War One, a British soldier demonstrates resourcefulness and determination as he transports supplies across a muddy field using a piece of corrugated iron. Circa 1916, this poignant image captures the gritty resilience of the soldiers as they navigated the treacherous terrain of the battlefield. The soldier, seated atop his horse, secures a sack, bale, or hay to the makeshift transport with a rope. The corrugated iron, likely salvaged from destroyed buildings or other sources, offers a testament to the ingenuity and adaptability of the troops in the face of adversity. The horse, too, wears the signs of the war, its hooves sinking into the thick mud as it carries its rider and the essential supplies. This evocative photograph offers a glimpse into the daily struggles of the British army during the Great War, a time when innovation, perseverance, and survival were the keys to success.
