EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, Prince Carol of Romania stands proudly among his comrades-in-arms at the Headquarters of the 8th Division in Bacau during the First World War. The future King Carol II of Romania, born in 1893, is seen here in his military uniform, displaying the air of a dedicated and resolute soldier. The Eastern Front of the war was a significant battleground, and Romania, as a belligerent power, played a crucial role in the conflict. Prince Carol's decision to join the army and serve on the front lines was a testament to his unwavering commitment to his country and its people. As heir to the Romanian throne, he understood the importance of leading by example and inspiring his troops with his presence. The image captures the essence of a young, determined monarch who was prepared to put his life on the line for his nation. The photograph was taken in 1916, a pivotal year in the First World War, as Romania joined the Allied forces and declared war on the Central Powers. The 8th Division, under the command of Prince Carol, played a crucial role in the Romanian campaign, contributing to the eventual Allied victory. This powerful image of Prince Carol in uniform, surrounded by his fellow soldiers, offers a glimpse into the Great War's human side. It serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the Romanian people and their future king during this tumultuous period in history.
