EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of C Squadron's half-track plunging into the water as its members wade ashore, loaded with essential equipment and three men aboard. Taken in 1944, this image is part of an album containing 210 photographs compiled by Major Wilfred Herbert James Sale, MC, of the 3rd/4th County of London Yeomanry (Sharpshooters). The album documents the experiences of the squadron during World War Two in North West Europe. The half-track, a versatile amphibious vehicle, is designed to traverse both land and water. In this instance, it is being driven through the shallow water, its tires submerged, as the squadron prepares to disembark from a landing craft. The men aboard, dressed in uniforms and carrying weapons, are ready for the next phase of their mission. The photograph provides a glimpse into the challenging conditions faced by soldiers during the amphibious landings, which were crucial to the success of the Allied invasion of Europe. Major Sale's album offers a unique and personal perspective on the war, revealing the daily life and experiences of the soldiers in C Squadron. The images document their training in England and their deployment in France, providing a visual record of their service and sacrifice. This photograph, in particular, encapsulates the bravery and determination of the soldiers as they wade ashore, ready to face the unknown challenges that await them on the European continent.
