EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the chaos and turmoil of the First World War, a sense of steadfast determination and courage shines through in this evocative image of British Lancers making their way along a cobblestone road in France. Dated between 1914 and 1918, this photograph captures a moment of resilience and unwavering commitment as these brave soldiers and their horses press onward, undeterred by the challenges that lie ahead. The Lancers, a type of cavalry unit renowned for their skill and agility on horseback, were a vital part of the British Army during the Great War. Their presence on the battlefields of France was a testament to the enduring power of traditional military tactics, even as the world around them was being irrevocably changed by the advent of modern warfare. As the Lancers ride, their sentries keep a watchful eye, scanning the terrain for any signs of danger. The horses, their coats glistening with sweat, plod along the uneven cobblestones, their hooves clattering against the stones in a rhythm that speaks of the relentless march of war. This poignant image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the world was at war and the fate of nations hung in the balance. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and horses of the British Army during the First World War, and the unwavering spirit that carried them through even the most trying of times.
