EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures a poignant moment during the First World War, as soldiers of the Royal Fusiliers, including Albert Auerbach, pen letters to their loved ones from on board the Anchor Line steamer Transylvania. Dated 20th April 1916, this is the first page of a letter from Albert to his sister Lucy. The troops, dressed in their uniforms and carrying their equipment, are seen gathered on the deck of the ship, likely taking in their final moments of peace before engaging in action on the Western Front. The handwritten letter, penned by Albert, offers a glimpse into the lives of the soldiers during this time. He writes of the long journey from England to Marseilles, the camaraderie among the troops, and his anticipation of joining his regiment. The letter also reveals the soldiers' reliance on the postal system to maintain connections with their families and loved ones, as Albert expresses his hope that the letter will reach Lucy safely. The image of Albert's letter, with its faded ink and creased edges, serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers and their families during the war. The Transylvania, a symbol of hope and transportation, carried these brave men to the front lines, where they would face the unimaginable challenges of war. This powerful image, with its historical significance and personal connection, offers a poignant glimpse into the human stories of the First World War.
