EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures Acting Sergeant Herbert Gibson, MM, of the 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance, Royal Army Medical Corps, taking a well-deserved rest in a makeshift bathtub during the First World War. Born in September 1889, Gibson served valiantly on the Western Front, where he was awarded the Military Medal for his bravery and dedication to saving lives. The image, taken during a rare moment of respite, offers a glimpse into the challenging conditions faced by medical personnel during the war. The bath, fashioned from a large metal oil drum, is filled with water heated over an open fire. Gibson's weary expression and the worn uniform speak volumes about the physical and emotional toll of the war. The 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance was one of many regiments that played a crucial role in the medical support of the British Army during World War I. These units were responsible for collecting, triaging, and treating the wounded soldiers on the battlefield, often under the most difficult and dangerous circumstances. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the medical personnel during the war, and the importance of their role in saving countless lives. It is a powerful image that resonates with the rich history of military medicine and the enduring legacy of those who served.
