EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the early morning rigor of naval training at Shotley Barracks during the First World War. In the image, a group of young boys, dressed in uniforms of the Royal Navy, are seen engaged in a physical drill session in a sprawling field. The sun has yet to rise fully, casting long shadows over the landscape, as the boys focus intently on their trainer, who stands at the front, guiding them through the exercises. These boys are naval cadets attached to HMS Ganges, a renowned Royal Navy training ship. The importance of their training is underscored by the fact that they are preparing for the Great War, a global conflict that would test their physical and mental fortitude. The scene exudes a sense of discipline and determination, as the boys hone their skills in preparation for the challenges that lie ahead. The photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of these young recruits, who would wake up early for breakfast before embarking on a day filled with rigorous training. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by these boys, who left their homes to serve their country during a time of war. The field, dotted with dew-laden blades of grass, adds to the serene yet intense atmosphere of the scene. The boys' concentration is palpable, as they follow their tutor's instructions, oblivious to the world around them. The photograph is a testament to the enduring spirit of the Royal Navy and the unwavering commitment of its young recruits during the First World War.
