EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history during the First World War in Champagne-Ardennes, Marne (51), Trigny in August 1917. The image shows an observation balloon in the swelling phase, being held by soldiers up close. The balloon, identified as M1188 and photographed by Bonnier, showcases the crucial role of aerostiers during wartime.
The soldiers are seen carefully handling the balloon, emphasizing the importance of aerial reconnaissance and surveillance during combat strategy. This scene provides a glimpse into the challenges faced by military personnel on the front lines, highlighting their bravery and dedication to their mission.
