No Bon for Me This: The Resilient Story of Acting Sergeant Herbert Gibson, MM, 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance, Royal Army Medical Corps, during World War I. Born in September 1889, Acting Sergeant Herbert Gibson served with great distinction as a member of the 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance, part of the Royal Army Medical Corps, during the harrowing years of World War I. The term "No Bon" refers to the absence of a helmet or steel helmet, a piece of equipment that became essential for soldiers on the battlefield as the war progressed. In this poignant photograph, Gibson, identified by his military number 386202, is seen without his helmet, likely due to the heat or the urgency of the situation. His determined expression and the medical supplies at his side suggest that he was in the midst of caring for wounded soldiers, a task he performed with courage and compassion throughout the war. Gibson's military career began in 1908 when he enlisted in the Northumberland Fusiliers. He later transferred to the Royal Army Medical Corps and was awarded the Military Medal (MM) for his bravery and devotion to duty. This decoration, which is displayed on his left chest, is a testament to his heroism and selflessness in the face of danger. As the Great War raged on, Gibson and his fellow medical personnel worked tirelessly to save lives and alleviate suffering. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of their sacrifices and the crucial role of medical personnel in military history. This evocative image, taken during World War I, offers a glimpse into the life of a dedicated and resilient soldier who put the lives of others before his own. Acting Sergeant Herbert Gibson's story is a testament to the courage, determination, and compassion of the men and women who served in the military during times of conflict.
