12th October 1915: British nurse Edith Cavell executed by a German firing squad
Edith Louisa Cavell had worked as a nurse in England for a number of years before taking up the position of matron at the Berkendael Institute in Brussels. This was Belgium’s first nurse training school, and Cavell soon began to bring about dramatic improvements in the standard of nursing in the country.
Although she was visiting her family in Norfolk when the First World War broke out, Edith Cavell soon returned to Belgium where she began working in a Red Cross hospital in occupied Brussels. Although she and her nurses treated any injured soldier, irrespective of which side they were fighting on, Cavell soon joined an underground network that helped British, French and Belgian soldiers escape to the neutral Netherlands.
Having grown suspicious of her activities, the German authorities a...

When the German high command becomes suspicious of her activities, Cavell is branded a spy and faces execution by firing squad.

During the First World War, there was an execution which caused shockwaves across Europe as it shocked many different nations. Edith Cavell was a nurse who was working in the Belgian city of Brussels. She was a very popular figure in nursing, and she worked to train other nurses to become better however during World War 1 she was also working against the Germans. She was working in German occupied territory, and was allowed to continue nursing, however she turned against the Germans and helped her British and allied soldiers.
Edith Cavell operated as part of an underground network who helped to smuggle over 200 injured soldiers and civilians out of Belgium and German occupation. They then travelled to the Netherlands before arriving back in Britain. Cavell did this for over a year until she was betrayed and then arrested. Because she was seen as working in German lands, she was accused and sentenced to death for treason, but her execution created great shock and anger across Britain and the United States.
Edith Cavell was ruthlessly and quickly shot by a firing squad, but the effects of her execution were profound. In the weeks after, British propaganda portrayed her as a martyr and an angelic figure killed brutally by the enemy. Because of this, thousands more soldiers signed up to fight in the First World War.

Edith Louisa Cavell had worked as a nurse in England for a number of years before taking up the position of matron at the Berkendael Institute in Brussels. This was Belgium’s first nurse training school, and Cavell soon began to bring about dramatic improvements in the standard of nursing in the country.
Although she was visiting her family in Norfolk when the First World War broke out, Edith Cavell soon returned to Belgium where she began working in a Red Cross hospital in occupied Brussels. Although she and her nurses treated any injured soldier, irrespective of which side they were fighting on, Cavell soon joined an underground network that helped British, French and Belgian soldiers escape to the neutral Netherlands.
Having grown suspicious of her activities, the German authorities arrested Cavell in early August 1915. After being kept in Saint-Gilles prison, she and 34 other people connected to the network were tried at court martial on 5 October. She had already made a full confession, but was found guilty of treason under the terms of German military law and sentenced to death.
The Geneva Convention usually protected medical personnel, but the fact that Cavell was helping members of the military meant that this was forfeited. Nevertheless her sentence was met with outrage both at home and in neutral countries. Despite attempts to secure amnesty, Edith Cavell was executed by firing squad on 12 October alongside her fellow defendant Philippe Baucq. The previous night she had told a visiting chaplain, ‘Patriotism is not enough. I must have no hatred or bitterness towards anyone.’

https://wn.com/Experience_Mount_Edith_Cavell_And_The_Hanging_Angel_Glacier_|_Jasper_National_Park【4K】
Today we explore Mount Edith Cavell in Jasper National Park,
Alberta, Canada.
The mountain was named in 1916 for Edith Cavell, a British nurse executed by the Germans during World War I for helping Allied soldiers escape from occupied Belgium to the Netherlands.
Hike the shorter Path Of Glacier Trail or take the Cavell Meadows Trail for more spectacular views.
On the north face, view the hanging Angel Glacier which spills over a 300 meter cliff.
To the left of angel glacier there is also ghost glacier and only a remnant of it remains after it broke off in 2012 and fell into Cavell pond causing a flood down the valley.
There is also Cavell Glacier that actively calves off giant chunks of ice into Cavell pond where you will see many icebergs.
Come along with me as we explore this stunning area in Canada's Rocky Mountains.

Available on DVD from http://www.classicfilmsdirect.com
Anna Neagle stars in this biopic of English nurse and First World War martyr Edith Cavell. Matron of a small private hospital in German-occupied Brussels during WWI, Cavell makes no distinction between the civilian casualties, Allied troops and German soldiers brought in for treatment. However, her sympathy for the plight of the Belgians leads her to become involved with a secret underground resistance movement that helps refugees and escaped prisoners of war to cross the border into neutral Holland. When the German high command becomes suspicious of her activities, Cavell is branded a spy and faces execution by firing squad.

In this week's Cinemoments, we continue to highlight films that make us stop and RETHINK with the historical drama NURSE EDITH CAVELL. Stunningly restored in 2015 and available in DCP, the 1939 film tells the true story of a British nurse who helped 200 soldiers escape from German-occupied Brussels in World War I.
In this clip, Nurse Edith can’t sleep as she ponders her difficult ethical conundrum. As the voices of the soldiers she has met come back to her, she recognises the pain and violence shared by both armies and decides to help the soldiers escape, regardless of which side they fight for. Her mandate to see beyond nationality and serve all those in need leads to her ultimate sacrifice and commemoration as a martyr. Carried by Anthony Collins’ Oscar®-nominated score and Anna Neagle’s powerful performance, this drama deals with complex and ever-relevant themes of unity and love in the face of violence and division.
NURSE EDITH CAVELL is a hidden gem from deep in the catalogue that asks difficult questions about allegiance, war, and generosity, and gives us much to reflect upon both from the past and into the present.
Please note Cinemoments may not be available in all territories.
