EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Building bridges in Bosnia" takes us back to the 1990s, a tumultuous period marked by conflict and division in the Balkans. In this image, we witness the unwavering dedication of The Royal Engineers as they work tirelessly on a footbridge near Sipivo, Bosnia. The scene is filled with action and determination as soldiers clad in their uniforms collaborate amidst the rugged terrain. With limited resources at hand, they utilize an impressive helicopter to transport materials and overcome logistical challenges that arise during construction. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the military's crucial role not only in times of war but also in rebuilding shattered communities. It showcases how these brave men and women put their lives on hold to bridge gaps both literally and metaphorically. As we delve into this snapshot from history, it becomes evident that it represents more than just physical infrastructure development; it symbolizes hope for reconciliation and unity within a region torn apart by conflict. The efforts of The Royal Engineers exemplify their commitment to fostering peace through tangible actions. Stenning Andrew's lens captures not only the technical aspects of bridge-building but also conveys the resilience and camaraderie among soldiers working towards a common goal. This photograph stands as a testament to human ingenuity, adaptability, and compassion even amidst challenging circumstances like those faced during Bosnia's troubled past.
