EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment during the Battle of Lys in April 1918, as soldiers from the 10th Queens (41st Division) of the British Army take up positions behind a wire barricade on a road at St. Jean on the Western Front in France. The Battle of Lys, also known as the Second Battle of Kemmel, was a significant engagement during World War I, marking the last major German offensive on the Western Front before the Allied Hundred Days Offensive. The soldiers in this image, huddled together behind the barbed wire block, appear alert and focused, their expressions revealing a mixture of determination and apprehension. The road behind them stretches out into the distance, leading to the battlefield where intense fighting was taking place. The wire barricade, a common feature of trench warfare, served as a crucial defensive measure against enemy advances. The 10th Queens (41st Division) played a vital role in the defense of the Lys River during this battle. Their bravery and resilience in the face of the German onslaught helped to prevent a potential breakthrough and secure a crucial victory for the Allied forces. This photograph offers a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers during this pivotal moment in world history. The Battle of Lys marked the beginning of the end for the German offensive on the Western Front and ultimately led to the eventual defeat of Germany in the First World War. This powerful image captures the raw emotion and intensity of the conflict, making it an invaluable addition to any historical collection.
