The Desert Phase of the South-West African Campaign... First World War, 1915, (c1920)
The Desert Phase of the South-West African Campaign: Union Troops plodding forward under fire, First World War, 1915, (c1920). The photograph gives a good idea of the wide desert-belt along the coast of South-West Africa which had to be crossed before the Union troops could get within striking distance of the enemy. The man in the foreground has been hit, German bullets sending up sand spurts behind him. The German colony of South West Africa eventually became independent as Namibia in 1990. From " The Great World War - A History" Volume III, edited by Frank A Mumby. [The Gresham Publishing Company Ltd, London, c1920]
