EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the Desert column headquarters at Abassan, South Palestine in September 1917. Taken by Captain Arthur Rhodes, a New Zealander serving in the military during World War I, this image offers a glimpse into the harsh realities of war in the Middle East. In this portrait-like composition, a group of uniformed soldiers can be seen seated under a tent for shelter from the scorching desert sun. The soldiers' weary expressions hint at their fatigue and the challenges they faced on a daily basis. Despite their exhaustion, there is an air of determination and camaraderie among them. The Desert column headquarters served as an important base for strategizing and coordinating military operations in South Palestine during this tumultuous time. It was here that decisions were made that would shape the outcome of battles fought against formidable opponents. This photograph not only documents a significant moment in history but also serves as a testament to the resilience and bravery of those who served on these frontlines. It reminds us of the sacrifices made by countless individuals during World War I and offers insight into life behind enemy lines. Preserved by the Palestine Exploration Fund based in London, UK, this image transports us back to an era defined by conflict while highlighting both individual stories and collective efforts towards victory.
