EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of The Colours and Escort of the Manchester Regiment during training exercises in 1915. The Manchester Regiment, also known by its nicknames "The Mancunians" and "The Red and Blacks," was a renowned infantry regiment of the British Army, with a rich history dating back to 1887. In this image, we see the regimental colours proudly held aloft by a group of soldiers, their faces focused and determined. The colours, a symbol of the regiment's heritage and traditions, are adorned with the Union Jack and the regimental badge, a bee and a rose, representing the city of Manchester. Accompanying the colours is the Escort, a select group of soldiers responsible for protecting the colours during parades and in battle. Dressed in their distinctive uniforms, complete with red tunics and black trousers, they stand at attention, their rifles at the ready and bayonets fixed. The lush, green grass beneath their feet provides a stark contrast to the soldiers' stern expressions and the rigid posture of their bodies. Each man salutes the colours, a gesture of respect and loyalty to the regiment and its proud history. This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the Manchester Regiment during the early years of the First World War. Despite the challenging circumstances, the soldiers maintain their discipline and pride, a testament to the enduring spirit of the British Army.
