EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the intensity and bravery of the British artillery during the Battle of Nery, a significant engagement in the early days of the First World War. In September 1914, L Battery of the Royal Horse Artillery found themselves facing off against a full battery of German artillery near the small French village of Nery. The British gunners, part of the Cavalry Brigade, displayed unwavering courage and determination as they kept up a steady fire for an impressive two and a half hours. Amidst the chaos and deafening noise of battle, three members of L Battery distinguished themselves with acts of extraordinary heroism. Their fearless actions earned them the prestigious Victoria Cross, the highest military decoration for valour in the face of the enemy. The battery's gallantry during this skirmish was later recognized with the honour title of "Nery." The single gun in this image serves as a poignant reminder of the individual sacrifices made during the First World War. The gunners, clad in heavy coats and helmets, stand resolute against the backdrop of smoke and debris, their faces etched with determination and focus. The scene is a testament to the bravery and selflessness of the soldiers who fought in the trenches, risking their lives to protect their comrades and their country. This photograph, taken by the renowned Illustrated London News Ltd/Mary Evans, offers a glimpse into the raw emotion and intensity of the Battle of Nery, a pivotal moment in the history of the First World War.
