EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative aerial photograph, taken in 1918, captures a part of Clairmarais aerodrome in Northern France during the First World War. The Pas de Calais region, with its rolling hills and expansive fields, provides a picturesque backdrop to the military installation. The image reveals a collection of buildings, some with thatched roofs, scattered among the landscape. These structures housed essential facilities for the Royal Flying Corps (RFC), including hangars, workshops, and living quarters for personnel. Several biplanes are visible on the airfield, their wings outstretched and ready for takeoff. Annotated on the photograph with a careful hand, the image bears the inscription "Aerodrome Clairmarais, France, 1918" and "RFC." The RFC was a key component of the British military during the war, responsible for reconnaissance and observation flights. These flights provided valuable intelligence to the army, enabling them to make informed decisions about troop movements and enemy positions. The photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the RFC squadrons stationed at Clairmarais aerodrome. The men and machines worked in tandem, their shared mission to support the war effort from the skies above. The rural countryside, dotted with trees and fields, stands in stark contrast to the industrial machinery and military structures, underscoring the unique blend of nature and technology that characterized the WWI air war.
