Old Cottage Near Headquarters, Rossignol, nr. Kemel: A Snapshot of WWI Military Life This evocative photograph captures the image of an old cottage nestled amidst the rolling hills and verdant landscape of Rossignol, near Kemel, during the tumultuous era of World War I. The serene scene, however, belies the underlying tension and hardships endured by those who lived and worked in this area during those trying times. In the foreground, we find Acting Sergeant Herbert Gibson, MM, of the 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance, Royal Army Medical Corps, standing in front of the quaint cottage. Born in September 1889, Gibson was among the brave men and women who answered the call to duty during the Great War. His Military Medal (MM) attests to his bravery and selflessness in the face of danger. The presence of a military field ambulance in the vicinity underscores the importance of medical support during wartime. These mobile medical units played a crucial role in providing first aid and emergency medical care to soldiers injured on the battlefield. The Old Cottage, with its thatched roof and ivy-covered walls, stands as a reminder of the enduring human spirit and the resilience of those who lived through the hardships of war. The photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of military personnel during WWI, providing a poignant and historical record of a bygone era.
