EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print from the Royal Sussex Regiment Collection takes us back to a significant moment in history - the year is 1917 and we find ourselves amidst the rugged landscapes of a North-West Frontier fort. The image showcases members of the esteemed 6th Battalion, Royal Sussex Regiment, as they stand tall with their rifles at hand. The soldiers' stoic expressions hint at their unwavering determination and resilience in the face of adversity. Horses tethered nearby evoke a sense of mobility and agility that was crucial for navigating this challenging terrain. Behind them stands an array of tents serving as temporary shelters amidst this remote outpost. This postcard-sized photograph serves as both a memento and communication tool for these brave men far away from home. It offers us a glimpse into their daily lives on duty while also reminding us of their sacrifices during one of humanity's darkest chapters. Preserved by West Sussex County Council's Record Office (Ref No: RSR Uncat Acc 3284 Vol 1 2/6th Batt/117), this rare artifact provides invaluable insight into our shared past. As we observe this historical treasure, let it serve as a reminder to honor those who fought selflessly for our freedom and peace – not just within commercial use but within our hearts forevermore.
