EDITORS COMMENTS
When Fritz Sends a Johnson Over: The Brave Act of Acting Sergeant Herbert Gibson, MM, 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance, Royal Army Medical Corps, during World War I This evocative photograph captures the moment of bravery and determination of Acting Sergeant Herbert Gibson, MM, of the 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance, Royal Army Medical Corps, during the chaotic and dangerous conditions of the Western Front in World War I. Born in September 1889, Gibson is seen here in the act of carrying a wounded soldier, known as a "Johnson," over his shoulders, as he makes his way through the mud and debris of the battlefield. The term "Johnson" was a colloquialism used by the British military to refer to a wounded soldier, and the act of carrying one was a common and dangerous task for medical personnel during the war. Gibson's unwavering dedication to his comrades is evident in this powerful image, as he braves the bullets and shells flying overhead to bring the wounded man to safety. The 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance was a vital unit in the British Expeditionary Force, providing medical support and care to the troops on the front lines. Gibson's bravery and selflessness were not unique to him alone, as thousands of medical personnel, many of whom were volunteers, risked their lives to save the wounded and dying on the battlefield. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and women of the medical services during World War I, and the crucial role they played in the war effort. It is a testament to the courage and resilience of those who served, and the enduring legacy of the regiments and units that supported them.
