EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a poignant moment in the history of World War I as the London Territorials, a part-time military force, receive blessings from clergy at St. Pancras Church in London before departing for France in August 1914. The soldiers, dressed in their uniforms and carrying their equipment, are seen passing the church where they had previously deposited their colours. The crowd of onlookers, including the Mayor and Borough officials, gather to offer their support and well-wishes as the troops muster and prepare to march past the church. This ceremonial event marked the formal departure of these soldiers from their homes and families, adding an air of solemnity to the proceedings. The Territorials, who were called up under the provisions of the Territorial and Reserve Forces Act of 1907, were an essential component of the British military effort during the early stages of the war. The photograph provides a glimpse into the historical significance of this moment, as the soldiers embarked on their journey to the battlefields of France, leaving behind their loved ones and their daily lives.
