Will They Never Come?
EDITORS COMMENTS
: A Haunting Image of Heroism and Sacrifice from the Trenches of World War One This poignant and powerful image, titled "Will They Never Come?", is a haunting reminder of the sacrifices made during the First World War. The photograph, originally published in the Weekly Dispatch in 1914, depicts a British soldier, bandaged and bloodied, standing in the midst of battle, his rifle at the ready as he contemplates the enemy before him. But his gaze is not fixed on the imminent threat; instead, it is drawn to the scene of a football match taking place back home. The soldier's expression is one of profound disappointment and longing, as he imagines the fit and able-bodied young men who could be joining him in the trenches, but instead choose to attend the football match. The stark contrast between the horrors of war and the seemingly frivolous pastime of football serves as a stark reminder of the human cost of conflict. This image, which has come to be known as the "Tommy" poster, was used as a recruitment tool during World War One, urging men to enlist and answer the call to duty. The haunting image of the injured soldier, coupled with the knowledge that there were countless others like him, served as a powerful motivator for many young men to join the ranks and fight for their country. Today, this image stands as a testament to the heroism and sacrifice of the soldiers who fought in the Great War, and serves as a reminder of the importance of recognizing the sacrifices made by those who have served and continue to serve in the armed forces. The haunting image of the soldier, standing alone in the midst of battle, serves as a reminder of the human cost of war, and the importance of remembering those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.
