November 1, 1915: A Moment of Desperate Courage in the Serbian Retreat to Albania during World War I This evocative photograph captures a pivotal moment in the Serbian Retreat to Albania during World War I. With the fall of the strategic city of Niš to the Bulgarian forces on October 29, 1915, Serbian military and civilians were left with no choice but to retreat across the mountains into Albania. In this image, Serbian troops are seen fighting a rearguard action against the advancing Bulgarian forces. The rugged terrain, harsh weather, and relentless enemy pressure made for a grueling and perilous journey. The Serbian army, already weakened by months of fighting on multiple fronts, faced an uphill battle against the better-equipped and larger Bulgarian forces. Yet, despite the odds, the Serbian soldiers displayed remarkable courage and determination. They held their ground, buying precious time for their comrades and civilians to escape to safety. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the Serbian people during the Great War. It tells a story of resilience, bravery, and the indomitable human spirit in the face of adversity. The Serbian Retreat to Albania is a significant chapter in the annals of World War I history, and this image offers a glimpse into the raw emotion and intensity of that time.
