EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the image of a young boy drummer of The South Wales Borderers, proudly standing at attention in his full dress uniform and bearing both a drum and bugle. The year is circa 1909, and the painting is the work of renowned British artist Malcolm Greensmith. The South Wales Borderers was an infantry regiment of the British Army, with a rich history dating back to the late 17th century. The boy drummer's youthful face, focused expression, and pristine uniform speak to the dedication and discipline instilled in young soldiers of the time. The drum and bugle were essential tools of the military drummer, used for signaling orders, coordinating troops, and maintaining morale on the battlefield. The drummer's distinctive uniform, complete with helmet, belt, and tunic, is adorned with various insignia and decorations, reflecting the regiment's proud heritage. This historical photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when young boys, like this drummer, served their country with courage and commitment. The image is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers and their families throughout history, and the enduring importance of military music and tradition.
