Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Haig at Bergues, France, 1917. This photograph shows Field Marshal (Earl) Haig (1861-1928) talking to a French general identified in the caption as 'Anthoine'. The French general is wearing his sword and appears to be in dress uniform. Troops and aircraft hangars can be seen in the background.

It has a French press stamp. The location may be identified as Bergues, near Dunkirk, which had an airfield used by the Allies during the war. This is one of a series of photographs of Haig at Bergues; the others show him decorating French troops.
[Original reads: 'Aout 1917 - Bergus(?) Nord - Le Mal. Douglas Haig et le Gal. Anthoine.']
