EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Lerie Klein in 1917, during the tumultuous times of World War I. The image shows Klein at the Hero Land Bazaar in New York City, where she is seen putting up a sign that reads "Le Bien-e^tre du Blesse´", which translates to "The Welfare of the Wounded". This poignant moment showcases Klein's dedication to supporting soldiers on the front lines by meeting their dietary needs through this war relief organization.
In this photograph taken by Bain News Service, we see a glimpse of the home front efforts during WWI as women like Lerie Klein played a crucial role in supporting the military. The intensity and determination on her face speak volumes about her commitment to helping those who were fighting for their country.
As we reflect on this historical image from over a century ago, it serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made during wartime and the importance of coming together as a community to support those in need. Lerie Klein's actions exemplify courage, compassion, and selflessness - qualities that continue to inspire us today.
