EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: This poignant print captures a moment of camaraderie and resilience amidst the chaos of World War I. Titled "The Old Man and Major Hall" it showcases two individuals who played significant roles at the 3rd Northern General Base Hospital in Broomhall, Sheffield. The hospital served as a sanctuary for wounded soldiers during the years 1915 to 1918. In this image, an elderly man, whose name remains unknown, stands alongside Major Hall, both dressed in military uniforms that bear witness to their commitment and sacrifice. Their expressions convey determination and compassion as they navigate through the challenges faced by medical personnel during wartime. Taken from Professor A. M. Connell's compilation "3rd Northern General Hospital, Sheffield" this photograph offers a glimpse into life at the base hospital and Longshaw during those tumultuous years. It serves as a testament to the unwavering dedication displayed by countless healthcare professionals who tirelessly cared for injured soldiers. As we reflect on this historical moment captured within these frames, let us remember all those who fought valiantly on behalf of their nations during World War I. May their sacrifices never be forgotten and may we always honor their memory with gratitude and respect.
