EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the muddy trenches and chaotic battlefields of northern France during the First World War, communication lines were a crucial lifeline for the British Army. In this evocative image, a Royal Engineer soldier is seen intently reading a message brought to him by a brave messenger dog, undeterred by the obstacle of a canal. The soldier, clad in a wet uniform and helmet, wades through the murky water, focusing intently on the important information contained within the tin can held in the dog's mouth. The tranquil scene is a stark contrast to the chaos and destruction of war, highlighting the vital role of animals in the military effort. The messenger dog, with its collar tag bearing the number '1st R.E.', swims alongside the soldier, its eyes fixed on its handler. The serene, pastoral setting of the wooded area surrounding the canal adds a sense of stillness and calm to the otherwise frenetic scene. This poignant photograph, taken between 1914 and 1918, is a testament to the ingenuity and resilience of the soldiers and animals who played a vital role in the communications network during the Great War.
