EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures the solemn and determined gaze of Lieut. Col. Frank Rennick, commanding officer of the 40th Pathans, an infantry regiment of the British Indian Army, during World War I. The image, taken prior to his tragic demise in 1915, portrays Rennick in his military uniform adorned with various medals and insignia, reflecting his distinguished military career. The 40th Pathans, also known as the 'Gibraltar of the East,' were renowned for their bravery and loyalty, with a rich history dating back to the late 19th century. Rennick, a British officer, had been serving with the regiment since 1901 and had developed a deep connection with the Pathans, earning their respect and admiration. Tragically, he was killed in action during the Battle of Neuve-Chapelle, leaving behind a legacy of courage and leadership. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by Rennick and the 40th Pathans during the First World War.
