EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of quiet determination and vigilance displayed by Acting Sergeant Herbert Gibson of the 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance, Royal Army Medical Corps, during the First World War. Born in September 1889, Gibson served on the front lines as part of the medical corps, providing essential care and support to wounded soldiers in the trenches. The image, taken during the early years of the war, shows Gibson standing at the ready, his gaze fixed on the horizon as he holds his rifle. The trench behind him is a stark reminder of the harsh conditions and constant danger faced by soldiers during this time. Despite the challenges, Gibson and his comrades remained steadfast in their duty, providing crucial medical assistance to those in need. The 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance was one of many regiments that played a vital role in the medical support of the British army during the First World War. The Royal Army Medical Corps, which the unit was a part of, was responsible for the provision of medical services to the army, including the transportation of the wounded to the rear areas for treatment. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by individuals like Acting Sergeant Gibson during the Great War. It is a powerful image that speaks to the bravery, resilience, and dedication of the men and women who served in the military during this time. The historical significance of this photograph makes it an invaluable addition to any collection of military history or World War I memorabilia.
