EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of solemn reflection and pride as General Henry Sinclair Horne, a distinguished British officer, watches the disciplined march past of New Zealand soldiers during a commemorative service in northern France. The year is circa 1917, marking the beginning of the fourth year of the First World War. The rural setting, with a winding road leading to the horizon, adds to the sense of isolation and introspection. General Horne, dressed in his military uniform, gazes intently at the zealander soldiers, his expression a mix of admiration and concern. The soldiers, in their crisp uniforms, march with unwavering determination, their faces a testament to the resilience and courage of the Anzac troops. The service was an important anniversary event, paying tribute to the sacrifices made by the soldiers and the people of New Zealand during the war. General Horne, as the commander of the British First Army, played a significant role in leading the troops to victory and ensuring the success of the Allied forces. This powerful image encapsulates the spirit of camaraderie, resilience, and determination that defined the First World War, and serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the soldiers and their commanders.
