Soldiers Outside in Wartime
By analyzing WW I veterans' correspondence and logbooks, we grasp the importance of weather in daily life on the front. Soldiers suffered from bad weather and hunger, from the lack of sleep and fear. In pictures produced at that time, whether in new reels as well as illustrated magazines, this aspect has been deleted since, to take a picture of the weather on the battlefront would have amounted to depicting realistically the war and would have run counter to the optimistic, mollifying image drawn in official propaganda - whether during WW I or more recent conflicts.
