EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the 1st Middlesex (Victoria Rifles) - Volunteers in 1890. The image, taken by Godfrey Douglas Giles, showcases a group of dedicated individuals dressed in their military uniforms, lying on the hilltop with their rifles at hand. Their jackets proudly display the emblematic Victoria Rifles insignia. Amidst this picturesque landscape, these brave volunteers are seen engrossed in various activities that epitomize their commitment to serving Queen and country. One soldier is captured reading a book, perhaps studying military strategy or tactics to enhance his skills. Another volunteer is diligently using a telescope for surveillance purposes, showcasing their dedication to maintaining territorial security. The presence of flags and banners adds an air of patriotism and unity among these soldiers who have come together from different walks of life to defend Britain's interests. A satchel lies nearby, suggesting that they are always prepared for any situation that may arise during training or active duty. This photograph not only highlights the historical significance of volunteer forces during the late nineteenth century but also pays tribute to those who selflessly served in Her Majesty's Army. Preserved through time by Walter Richards' publication "Her Majesty's Army" this image serves as a poignant reminder of our nation's rich heritage and unwavering commitment towards protecting its people.
