EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the poignant moment as the 1st Cameron Highlanders bid farewell to their loved ones and the shores of Southampton, England, on August 15, 1914. As the Great War in Europe escalated, these brave soldiers, clad in their distinctive kilts and tartan bonnets, prepared to embark on the SS Caledonia for the long and uncertain journey to the Western Front. The 1st Cameron Highlanders, also known as the "Prince of Wales' Own," were part of the British Army's Highland Brigade, and their departure marked the beginning of a significant military presence in the conflict. The men in this image, with their determined expressions and heavy hearts, embody the courage and resilience of the many soldiers who left their homes to fight for their country during World War I. The SS Caledonia, a passenger and cargo ship, sailed from Southampton, a major port city in England, and was one of many vessels that transported troops and supplies to the front lines. The soldiers' departure was a somber occasion, with crowds of family, friends, and well-wishers gathered on the dockside to wave them off. This photograph offers a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and women of the 1st Cameron Highlanders and the many other military units that left Southampton during the early days of World War I. The image also underscores the profound impact that the war had on the people of Britain and the world, as they faced the unknown challenges of the battlefield and the profound changes that the conflict would bring.
