EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the essence of military tradition and history with an image of a corporal from the 7th Queens Own Hussars, dressed in his full uniform from around 1912. The corporal proudly wears the distinctive pith helmet, which was a common feature of hussar regiments serving in hot climates. The uniform itself is adorned with various insignia and braiding, reflecting the corporal's rank and regimental pride. The corporal's sword, slung at his side, is a symbol of his authority and duty as a non-commissioned officer. His riding boots are polished to a high shine, indicating his dedication to maintaining the high standards expected of soldiers in the British Army during this period. The 7th Queens Own Hussars, also known as the "Queen's Own," was a cavalry regiment with a rich history dating back to 1685. The regiment saw action in numerous conflicts, including the Napoleonic Wars and both World Wars. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a tangible connection to the history of the British military during the early 20th century. The uniform, with its intricate details and traditional design, is a testament to the pride and dedication of the soldiers who wore it. The image also serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by these men and women in the name of duty, honor, and country.
