Army India Landscape Punjab Tent World War One
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Sussex Regiment Collection takes us back to the year 1916-17, amidst the vast landscapes of Punjab, India. The image showcases soldiers belonging to RSR 2 / 6th Battalion, stationed at Burhan Camp during World War One. With their tents dotting the horizon, these brave men stand tall and resolute in their military uniforms. The photograph offers a glimpse into the lives of these soldiers as they navigate through challenging times. It serves as a poignant reminder of their dedication and sacrifice for their country during one of history's most tumultuous periods. The picturesque Punjab landscape provides a striking backdrop for this snapshot in time. Lush green fields stretch out endlessly under an expansive sky, while distant mountains add depth to the scene. The tranquility of nature contrasts with the harsh realities faced by those serving on foreign soil. As we observe this historic postcard-like image, it is impossible not to reflect upon the immense courage displayed by these individuals who left behind everything familiar in order to protect and serve. Their unwavering commitment echoes through generations, reminding us of our duty to honor and remember them. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office Ref No: RSR Uncat Acc 3284 Vol 1 2/6th Batt/096 collection, this remarkable photograph encapsulates both a moment frozen in time and an enduring testament to valorous service rendered by British troops during World War One.
