EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of the Free French Spahis, a brave and tenacious cavalry unit during World War II. Circa 1943, in the arid expanse of North Africa, these French soldiers, clad in their distinctive uniforms adorned with the Lorraine Cross insignia, charge through the undulating desert dunes on horseback. The Spahis, meaning 'spearmen' in Arabic, were an integral part of the Allied forces during the North African Campaign. Their unique skills in desert warfare, honed over centuries of service in the region, proved invaluable to the Allied cause. The cross symbol on their uniforms, the Croix de Lorraine, was adopted by the Free French Forces to represent their unwavering commitment to the liberation of France from Nazi occupation. The Spahis' horseback charge through the desert dunes is a testament to their courage, resilience, and the enduring bond between man and horse in the face of adversity. This historical photograph transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the rich and complex history of the Second World War.
