EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured German Fokker plane, First World War, 1915-1916 (c1920). A testament to Allied triumph: a German Fokker monoplane brought down intact on the Western Front. This remarkable print captures a pivotal moment in aviation history during the Great War. The image showcases the ingenuity and bravery of both sides as they pushed the boundaries of air transport. The Fokker EIII fighter plane, prominently displayed here, was highly regarded for its advanced design and formidable firepower. Its distinctive iron cross insignia symbolizes Germany's military might at the time. However, this particular aircraft met its fate under Allied fire, becoming an invaluable prize for intelligence gathering. This photograph is featured in 'The Great World War: A History, ' edited by Frank A Mumby, offering readers a glimpse into one of humanity's most devastating conflicts. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by countless men who fought valiantly on both sides. As we examine this image today, it allows us to reflect upon how far we have come since those tumultuous times. It stands as a tribute to human resilience and innovation amidst chaos and destruction.
