EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the year 1945, amidst the chaos of World War II. Six soldiers, all hailing from Droitwich, Worcestershire and recently returning from Burma, find solace and camaraderie at the Royal Exchange public house in their hometown. The men gather around a table adorned with plates filled with hearty meals as they enjoy a well-deserved dinner. Their gracious host for the evening is driver Tom Morgan, himself on embarkation leave. Joining them are sailor A. B. Watson and airman Sergeant Colley, both also taking respite from their duties in eastern operations. As they raise their glasses filled with frothy beer, laughter fills the air as these friends share stories of bravery and survival. The photograph captures a moment frozen in time - a testament to resilience and friendship forged through shared experiences on the battlefield. These servicemen have endured unimaginable hardships but now relish in each other's company within the familiar walls of this local establishment. It serves as a poignant reminder that even during times of conflict, bonds can be formed that transcend borders and last a lifetime. This image encapsulates not only their return home but also represents countless others who found solace among comrades while serving their country during one of history's darkest chapters.
