RSR 2 / 6th Battalion, Barwand looking towards Nanu Pass - A Glimpse into the Harsh Realities of WW1
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print from the Royal Sussex Regiment Collection, housed at West Sussex Record Office, takes us back to a significant moment in history. Captured between 1916 and 1919 during World War One, it offers a poignant glimpse into the lives of soldiers stationed in India. The image showcases a rugged landscape dominated by towering mountains and an expansive desert-like terrain. In the foreground stands a solitary soldier dressed in military attire, his rifle firmly grasped as he gazes towards Nanu Pass. The presence of a tent nearby suggests this may have been their temporary shelter amidst harsh conditions. To fortify their position against potential threats, sandbags are strategically placed around the tent—a testament to the constant vigilance required during wartime. These simple yet effective measures were essential for survival on foreign soil. As we reflect upon this photograph's historical significance, let us remember that it is not just about war but also about human resilience and sacrifice. It serves as a reminder of the countless brave men who left behind their families and homes to protect our freedoms
