War Crowd in Downing St., London (LOC)

  • Wystan said:
    The crowd is not IN Downing Street. Downing Street is the narrow lane off to the left.
  • Kristi (LOC P&P) said:
    Wystan, Thanks for the heads up. It looks to be the corner of Downing Street and Whitehall, so we will amend the record to better reflect the location.
  • Leonard Bentley said:
    Hi, Thanks for adding your photo.

Joffre & Kitchener (LOC)

  • Art Siegel said:
    "Marshal Joseph Jacques Césaire Joffre, G.C.B., O.M. (French pronunciation: ​[ʒɔsɛf ʒɔfʁ]; 12 January 1852 – 3 January 1931), was a French general during World War I. He is most known for regrouping the retreating allied armies to defeat the Germans at the strategically decisive First Battle of the Marne in 1914. His popularity led to his nickname Papa Joffre." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joffre There are many Bain photos of Joffre, commander in chief of the French Army. www.flickr.com/search/?w=8623220@N02&q=joffre "Field Marshal Horatio Herbert Kitchener, 1st Earl Kitchener, KG, KP, GCB, OM, GCSI, GCMG, GCIE, ADC, PC (24 June 1850 – 5 June 1916) was a British Field Marshal and proconsul who won fame for his imperial campaigns and later played a central role in the early part of the First World War, although he died halfway through it." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbert_Kitchener,_1st_Earl_Kitchener Other Bain photos of Herbert Kitchener: www.flickr.com/search/?w=8623220@N02&q=herbert%20kitc...

    artolog: Thanks again for another full name which we can include next time we update!
  • Art Siegel said:
    This was almost certainly taken outside the War Office in London on the occasion of Joffre's previously unpublicized visit with Kitchener on October 29, 1915. According to this account, they left the building at 1:30 p.m. that day together. select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F30615F6355A1573...
