Albania Cold Crossing Defeat Head Quarters Retreat Retreating Serbian Staff Stick Sticks War Time Ww 1


EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, a group of Serbian headquarters staff are seen making their way across a snow-covered bridge near the village of Sizir in October 1915 during the First World War. The image captures the harsh realities of war time and the sense of determination and resilience in the face of defeat. The Serbian army, which had been holding out against the Central Powers in the Balkans, was in a state of retreat. The staff, bundled up against the cold, are seen carrying their belongings and using long sticks for support as they cross the river. The bridge, with its arched structure and wooden planks, adds to the sense of isolation and vulnerability. The First World War was a great and devastating conflict that lasted from 1914 to 1918. The Serbian army, which had initially held its ground against the invading forces, was eventually forced to retreat in the face of overwhelming numbers and resources. The retreat through Albania was a long and arduous journey, with the staff and soldiers facing harsh weather conditions and a lack of supplies. Despite the challenges, the Serbian staff are seen here maintaining their composure and making their way across the bridge, a testament to their resilience and determination. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the sacrifices made by those on the front lines. The image is a valuable historical record of a significant moment in the First World War and is a testament to the bravery and fortitude of the Serbian people during a time of great adversity. It is a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers and civilians alike during the conflict and the importance of remembering the past to inform the present.
