Summary[edit]

Description
English: A few soldiers gather round an aeroplane. Three of them are looking at the cockpit, while three others perch near the tail. According to the original caption, these men are dismantling the plane. There are no wings attached which suggests they have either been removed or have suffered severe damage during combat. This photograph is bathed in a bright atmospheric light.

Still in their relative infancy at the outbreak of World War I, aeroplanes were used for both fighting and reconnaissance purposes.
[Original reads: 'OFFICIAL PHOTOGRAPH OF THE RECENT BRITISH ADVANCE ON THE WESTERN FRONT. Dismantling an aeroplane which was forced to land behind our lines.']
