Colonial Military Sergeant Smile Uniform
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "My sister outranks me! - February 1945" we are transported back to a moment of pride and camaraderie within the Canadian Army during World War II. The image showcases a colonial brother and sister, both donning their crisp military uniforms with sergeant insignias proudly displayed. Their smiles radiate genuine joy as they pose side by side, embodying the strength and resilience that defined this era. This photograph seems to have been captured with great intentionality, perhaps intended as a heartfelt memento for their loved ones back home. It encapsulates the deep bond shared between siblings who found themselves serving together in an unfamiliar land far from their roots. The George Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office preserves this remarkable piece of history, offering us a glimpse into the lives of those who selflessly served their country during wartime. Through its lens, we witness not only the bravery exhibited on the battlefield but also moments of lightheartedness amidst adversity. As we reflect upon this poignant image, let us remember all those who fought valiantly during World War II and honor their sacrifice. May it serve as a reminder that even in times of turmoil, love and unity can prevail – transcending ranks and boundaries alike.
