EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of the Queens Royal West Surrey Regiment during the First World War, circa 1915. The image showcases a group of soldiers, all proudly wearing their distinctive regimental insignia on their chests. The emblem, embroidered in silk, features the royal cypher of King George V encircled by the regimental title and the motto 'Quo Fas et Gloria Ducunt' which translates to 'Where Duty and Glory Lead'. The Queens Royal West Surrey Regiment, also known as the 'Queen's Own', was a renowned infantry regiment of the British Army with a rich history dating back to the English Civil War. During the First World War, the regiment saw action on the Western Front and in various theatres of war, including Gallipoli and Mesopotamia. The soldiers in this photograph exude a sense of camaraderie and determination, their faces reflecting the gravity of the situation they were in. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by these brave men and the role they played in shaping the course of history during the Great War. The silk embroidered regimental insignia, with its intricate design and regal symbolism, is a testament to the pride and tradition that bound these soldiers together. This photograph is not only a valuable historical document but also a powerful reminder of the human stories that lie behind the larger narrative of the First World War.
