EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled 'Les Bourriquots de ravitaillement; dans le region de Verdun' (The Supply Donkeys of Verdun), captures a poignant moment during the brutal Battle of Verdun in 1916. The image portrays a group of donkeys and mules, led by territorial soldiers, delivering essential supplies to the French troops defending Fleury. During World War I, donkeys and mules played a crucial role as beasts of burden in transporting food, ammunition, and other essential items to the front lines, particularly in difficult terrains where horses and motorized vehicles could not reach. These animals, often referred to as 'bourriquots' or 'mules de sapeurs-pompiers' (firemen's mules), were indispensable in the harsh conditions of the battlefield. The photograph, published in the French illustrated magazine 'L'Illustration' in 1916, offers a glimpse into the wartime logistics and the resilience of both the animals and the soldiers. The image, from the Collection de la Guerre IV, evokes the gritty reality of the First World War and the unwavering spirit of those who served. The exact creator of this photograph remains unknown, adding to its historical intrigue. Yet, the image stands as a testament to the vital role of animals in military history and the human spirit that persevered amidst the chaos and hardships of war.
