EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a truly remarkable moment in history - the promotion of a loyal war dog serving with the French 22nd Colonial Regiment. In this image, we see the brave canine adorned with the prestigious Morocco Medal, symbolizing his dedication and service to his regiment.
The significance of this promotion cannot be understated, as it highlights the invaluable role that animals played in warfare during this time period. The fact that this furry soldier was not only recognized for his contributions but also promoted to sergeant speaks volumes about his bravery and loyalty on the battlefield.
As we reflect on this powerful image, we are reminded of the bond between humans and animals in times of conflict. The dog's unwavering commitment to duty serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by all who serve their country, regardless of species.
Through this print from Mary Evans Picture Library, we are transported back to 1912 and given a glimpse into a lesser-known aspect of military history. It is a testament to the enduring legacy of those who have served alongside us, both human and animal alike.
