EDITORS COMMENTS
The Boys of the Young Brigade: The Officers Training Corps Manoeuvring In The West - Parade of White Corps in Acton Turville, Western Contingent of The Officers Training Corps (1910) This evocative photograph captures the Western Contingent of The Officers Training Corps (OTC) as they pass through the picturesque village of Acton Turville, in the early 20th century. Dated 1910, this outdoor military image showcases the young, determined faces of the cadets as they proudly march in formation, clad in their distinctive white uniforms. The OTC, also known as the 'Young Brigade,' was an essential part of the British military system, providing young men with military training and discipline before they entered military service. The parade in Acton Turville is a testament to the Corps' commitment to preparing the next generation of officers for their future roles. The village, with its quaint houses and well-kept gardens, serves as a striking contrast to the military precision and discipline on display. The photograph, captioned 'The Boys of the Young Brigade: The Officers Training Corps Manoeuvring In The West,' offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the dedication and camaraderie of these young men as they prepared for their future military careers. The 1910s marked a significant period in British military history, with the build-up to the First World War. This photograph offers a unique perspective on this era, providing a snapshot of a bygone age and a reminder of the sacrifices made by these young men and their families during a time of great upheaval and change. This image, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Prints Online, is a must-have for military history enthusiasts, historians, and anyone interested in the social history of the early 20th century.
