General Leman, the gallant Belgian commander and defender of Liege, c1914-c1918. Artist: Topical Press Agency
General Leman, the gallant Belgian commander and defender of Liege, c1914-c1918. After the Germans invaded Belgium on 4 August 1914, the Belgians pinned their hopes of resisting the invasion on the strategic fortifications of the city of Liege, commanded by General Gerard Leman (1851-1920). The defenders held out from 5-16 August, slowing the German advance towards France in the process, until their resistance was ended by heavy artillery bombardment. Leman himself was carried out of the fortress wounded and unconscious, spending the rest of the war as a German prisoner of war before returning home to a heros welcome after the Armistice
