EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the intensity and focus of a military wargame in progress at the headquarters of the 25th Battalion County of London (Cyclist) Regiment in 1909. The scene is set around a dining table laden with a detailed map of the outskirts of Belgrade, Serbia, upon which the tactics of rival teams are meticulously planned. The screen strategically placed behind the map conceals the plans from opposing sides, adding an element of suspense and competition. The men, dressed in military uniforms, are fully engrossed in the game, their expressions reflecting the seriousness of the exercise. Among them is Captain Trapmann, who expertly directs his team, his keen gaze fixed on the board. The atmosphere is reminiscent of a war room, with sections and trains carefully arranged to represent various military units and formations. The use of a dining table as a makeshift battlefield is a testament to the adaptability and resourcefulness of military personnel during this era. The game, known as Bellum, was a popular military training tool that allowed officers and soldiers to strategize and plan for potential conflicts. The 5th Battalion County of London (Cyclist) Regiment, known for its agility and quick response, was well-equipped to tackle the challenges of the ever-changing military landscape. The photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing insights into the military strategies and tactics employed during the early 1900s. It also highlights the camaraderie and teamwork that existed among soldiers, even during training exercises.
