EDITORS COMMENTS
Greetings from Palestine: A Christmas Card from the Egyptian Expeditionary Force, 1918-1919 This evocative Christmas card, featuring the Egyptian Expeditionary Force (EEF) in Palestine during World War I, was sent by Driver F.J. Tribble of the 1/5th (Prince of Wales's) Devonshire Battalion. Dated between 1918 and 1919, the card offers a unique glimpse into the experiences of British soldiers serving in the Middle East during this pivotal period in world history. The Egyptian Expeditionary Force was formed in 1914 to support the British campaign in Egypt and the Sinai Peninsula against the Ottoman Empire. By 1917, the EEF, under the command of General Edmund Allenby, had successfully captured Jerusalem and advanced towards Damascus. The following year, the war in the Middle East came to an end with the signing of the Armistice of Mudros on October 30, 1918. This Christmas card, adorned with a commemorative art image of the EEF, serves as a poignant reminder of the holiday spirit that endured amidst the harsh realities of war. The topographical background depicts the rugged terrain of Palestine, with soldiers in winter uniforms gathered around a campfire, exchanging cheerful greetings. The image is a testament to the camaraderie and resilience that sustained the troops during their arduous campaign. Driver F.J. Tribble's signature on the reverse of the card adds a personal touch, allowing us to connect with the individual experiences of those who served in the Egyptian Expeditionary Force during World War I. This Christmas card is an invaluable historical artifact, offering a unique perspective on a significant moment in military and world history.
