EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage lantern slide captures a haunting glimpse of a German pillbox at Builecourt during the First World War. The stark, utilitarian design of the pillbox stands in stark contrast to the lush greenery surrounding it, serving as a grim reminder of the brutal realities of war. The intricate network of trenches and fortifications visible in the background speak to the strategic importance of this location, which was undoubtedly hotly contested during one of history's deadliest conflicts. The pillbox itself appears formidable and imposing, its thick concrete walls offering protection to those inside from enemy fire. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to an era defined by violence and destruction. The soldiers who manned these defences faced unimaginable hardships and dangers on a daily basis, their courage and sacrifice forever etched into the annals of history. The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection has preserved this piece of wartime imagery for future generations to reflect upon. It serves as a poignant reminder of the horrors endured by those who fought in the First World War, as well as a testament to human resilience in the face of adversity. May we never forget the sacrifices made by so many during that tumultuous period in our shared history.
