EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the intensity and camaraderie of Tommy gun practice during the North African campaign of World War Two. The image features three soldiers, identified as Tony Troiano, Arthur Cook, and Brian Darch, standing on the back of a tank. In the foreground, Troiano confidently fires the Thompson Submachine Gun, also known as a Tommy gun, while Cook and Darch provide support, each holding a spare magazine and maintaining a watchful eye. This photograph is part of an album containing 189 images, compiled by Major Wilfred Herbert James Sale, MC, of the 3rd/4th County of London Yeomanry (Sharpshooters). The album offers a unique and personal glimpse into the daily life and experiences of the soldiers serving in the 7th Armoured Division during this critical period. The date of this photograph is 1943, and it offers a stark reminder of the harsh realities and dangers faced by these soldiers in the deserts of North Africa. The Tommy gun, a powerful and versatile weapon, was a vital tool in the hands of the infantry, enabling them to provide effective close-range fire support and suppress enemy positions. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the bravery, determination, and camaraderie displayed by the soldiers of the 7th Armoured Division during their time in North Africa. It stands as a testament to their resilience and their commitment to the cause, and serves as an important historical record of a pivotal moment in World War Two.
