Army India Landscape Mule Punjab Tent Uniform World War One
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Sussex Regiment Collection takes us back to the year 1917, amidst the chaos of World War One. The image showcases members of RSR 2 / 6th Battalion at their camp in Burhan, India. Dressed in their smart uniforms, these brave soldiers stand tall and proud, embodying the resilience and determination that defined this tumultuous era. The picturesque landscape of Punjab serves as a breathtaking backdrop for this snapshot in time. Lush greenery stretches as far as the eye can see, while majestic mountains loom in the distance. Amidst nature's beauty, rows of tents are neatly arranged, providing shelter for these courageous men who have left their homes behind to serve their country. One cannot help but notice an adorable mule standing by one soldier's side. These loyal animals played a crucial role during wartime, carrying supplies across treacherous terrains and offering companionship to weary troops. As we gaze upon this historic postcard-like photograph, it serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by those who fought on foreign soil during World War One. It is a testament to bravery and camaraderie that transcends time. Preserved carefully within West Sussex Record Office Ref No: RSR Uncat Acc 3284 Vol 1 2/6th Batt/092 collection held by West Sussex County Council, this remarkable piece allows us to reflect on our shared history and honor those who served with unwavering dedication.
