EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful image captures a poignant moment in history as a draft of men board the train in Hounslow, England en route for the front during World War I. The year is 1914 and Belgium is their destination, where they will join the fight in what would become known as The Great War.
The faces of these soldiers reflect a mix of determination and uncertainty as they say goodbye to loved ones and prepare to embark on a journey into the unknown. The platform is crowded with families bidding farewell to their brave sons, husbands, and brothers who are answering the call to serve their country.
As they board the train, there is a sense of camaraderie among these men who are bound by duty and honor. They carry with them not only their weapons but also the hopes and prayers of those left behind.
This photograph from "The Pageant of the Century" published in 1934 serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by countless individuals during this tumultuous period in history. It captures a moment frozen in time that speaks volumes about courage, sacrifice, and resilience in the face of adversity.
