The RAF Takes Over the Policing of Iraq - A Glimpse into History
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, captured by Central News in 1922, offers a unique aerial view of Ramadi on the Euphrates River. The image showcases one of the RAF aerodromes located in this historical city, west of Baghdad. During this pivotal moment in history, the Royal Air Force (RAF) played a crucial role in maintaining law and order as they assumed control over policing operations in Iraq. This photograph serves as a powerful testament to their presence and influence during that time. The monochrome composition adds an air of nostalgia to the scene, transporting viewers back to the early 20th century when Europeana photography was at its peak. It is a visual reminder of how far we have come since then. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, it is impossible not to reflect on the significance of such moments from our past. It reminds us that history has shaped our present reality and continues to shape our future. This print from TopFoto allows us to appreciate both the beauty and historical importance encapsulated within its frame. Let it serve as a window into an era long gone but never forgotten – where brave men took flight amidst turbulent times, leaving an indelible mark on Iraqi soil.
