EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the determination and resilience of a Russian infantry battalion on the march through Poland during the First World War in 1915. The soldiers, dressed in their universal field-service dress and war-wear uniforms, carry their kits and weapons with a sense of purpose as they make their way along a dusty road. The universal field-service dress, which became the standard uniform for the Russian army during the war, consisted of a khaki tunic and trousers, while the war-wear uniform included a greatcoat and fur hat for added protection against the harsh winter conditions. The soldiers are seen carrying a variety of weapons, including rifles and guns, which were essential for the defense of the Russian lines against the advancing German forces. The photograph provides a glimpse into the daily life of the Russian infantry during the Polish campaign, a crucial period in the war that saw heavy fighting and significant losses for both sides. The image also serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers during this tragic period in history. The soldiers' focused expressions and steady gait convey their unwavering commitment to their cause, even in the face of adversity. The photograph is a powerful testament to the courage and resilience of the Russian infantry during the First World War and offers a unique insight into the conditions they faced on the battlefield.
