EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the harsh realities of life in the German trenches at Le Target, Belgium during World War I. The image, taken in 1915, shows a group of German soldiers huddled together in the muddy, cramped confines of their trench, with the ominous sight of barbed wire stretching out into the distance. Amidst the soldiers, Acting Sergeant Herbert Gibson of the 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance, Royal Army Medical Corps, can be seen attending to a wounded comrade. Born in September 1889, Gibson was a dedicated medical professional who bravely served on the front lines, providing vital care to soldiers on both sides of the conflict. This powerful image offers a poignant reminder of the human cost of war, as well as the crucial role played by medical personnel in the midst of battle. With its rich historical significance, this photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of World War I regimental history or military topography.
