EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures the aftermath of a German bombing raid on the town of Poperinghe, Belgium, in December 1915 during World War I. The image shows the lifeless body of 386202 Acting Sergeant Herbert Gibson, MM, of the 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance, Royal Army Medical Corps. Born in September 1889, Gibson was a brave and dedicated soldier who had served his country valiantly. The bombing raid on Poperinghe was a tragic event that claimed the lives of many innocent civilians and military personnel. The town, located in the western part of Belgium, was a major base for British troops during the war. The photograph is a stark reminder of the brutal realities of war and the sacrifices made by soldiers and civilians alike. Gibson's uniform and the debris in the background suggest that the bombing occurred in the vicinity of a military camp or hospital. The MM (Military Medal) on his chest indicates that he had been awarded this decoration for his bravery and gallantry in the face of the enemy. The photograph is a powerful and moving testament to the human cost of war. It is a reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers like Gibson and the civilians of Poperinghe during the dark days of World War I. The image is a valuable historical record of the war and the role of the Royal Army Medical Corps in providing medical care to wounded soldiers on the battlefield.
