EDITORS COMMENTS
Journees inoubliables a Strasbourg; Le poste de garde francais charge de la surveillance du grand pont de Kehl, sur le Rhin, 1918" is a captivating photograph from the aftermath of World War I, specifically from the Alsace-Lorraine region of France. The image, taken from "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" published by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924, depicts a group of French soldiers standing at their post on the Kehl Bridge over the Rhine River. The soldiers, dressed in their military uniforms, are alert and focused, their gazes fixed on the horizon as they stand guard, ensuring the peace and security in the liberated region of Alsace-Lorraine. The bridge, a significant geographical feature and a vital strategic point during the war, stretches out behind them, connecting France and Germany. The photograph captures the essence of the postwar atmosphere, with the soldiers' victorious and relieved expressions reflecting the sense of peace and liberation that followed the end of the First World War. The image is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the conflict and the importance of maintaining peace and order in the aftermath. The photograph is a valuable historical document, providing a glimpse into the past and offering insight into the experiences of the soldiers who served during the war. The unknown creator of this photograph has captured a moment in history, one that is both memorable and inoubliable (unforgettable in French), making it a significant addition to any collection of historical images from the 20th century.
