EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures the stoic gaze of Acting Sergeant Herbert Gibson (386202), a Canadian Scottish soldier serving with the 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance of the Royal Army Medical Corps during World War I. Born in September 1889, Gibson was likely no stranger to the harsh realities of war by the time this image was taken. His military medals, including the Military Medal (MM), are proudly displayed on his chest, a testament to his bravery and dedication to his country and comrades. The Canadian Scottish Regiment, also known as the Princess Mary's (Royal Highlanders) of Canada, was a distinguished infantry regiment that saw action on the Western Front. The Northumbrian Field Ambulance was responsible for providing medical care and support to the soldiers of the Canadian Scottish and other units under their command. This photograph offers a glimpse into the lives of the brave men and women who served during the Great War, and the sacrifices they made for their countries. It is a poignant reminder of the rich military history shared between Canada and Scotland, and the enduring bonds of camaraderie that were forged on the battlefields of World War I.
