EDITORS COMMENTS
The Joys of Listening Patrol: A Moment of Respite during the Great War This evocative photograph captures the quiet intensity of Acting Sergeant Herbert Gibson, MM, of the 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance, Royal Army Medical Corps, as he listens attentively for any signs of danger during a listening patrol in the trenches during World War I. Born in September 1889, Gibson and his comrades were part of the tireless efforts to provide medical support to the soldiers on the frontlines. The barbed wire fence in the foreground serves as a stark reminder of the harsh realities of war, while the dimly lit trench and the somber expression on Gibson's face underscore the gravity of the situation. The photograph, titled 'ELP AM CATCHED ON THIS BARBED WIRE. 386202 Acting Sergeant Herbert Gibson, MM, 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance, Royal Army Medical Corps. Born September 1889,' is a poignant testament to the bravery and dedication of the medical personnel during the Great War. The image is a valuable historical document that offers a glimpse into the daily life of the soldiers on the Western Front. It also highlights the crucial role of medical personnel in ensuring the survival of the troops and the importance of listening patrols in maintaining situational awareness and keeping the enemy at bay. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and women who served during World War I and the enduring legacy of their bravery and resilience.
