EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures Lieut. Gen. Sir John Stevens Cowans (1862-1921), a prominent figure in the British Army during the First World War. Cowans served a distinguished military career, holding the position of Quarter-master General and being a member of the Army Council throughout the conflict. His expertise in logistics and supply played a crucial role in the success of the British military efforts. Born in 1862, Cowans joined the British Army in 1881 as a second lieutenant in the Royal Engineers. He quickly rose through the ranks, demonstrating exceptional leadership and organizational skills. By the turn of the 20th century, he had become a colonel and was appointed as the Assistant Adjutant-General in the War Office. During the First World War, Cowans' strategic acumen was put to the test. As Quarter-master General, he oversaw the supply and logistics for the British Expeditionary Force in France. His ability to ensure that troops were well-equipped and well-fed was instrumental in maintaining morale and enabling the military to focus on the strategic objectives. Cowans' contributions extended beyond logistics, as he was also a member of the Army Council, providing valuable insights and guidance on military policy. After the war, Cowans continued to serve in various roles within the British military, retiring as a Lieutenant General in 1921. His legacy as a key figure in the British Army during the First World War endures, and his accomplishments continue to be studied by military historians. This photograph, taken during his military career, offers a glimpse into the life of a man who played a pivotal role in shaping the course of history.
