EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the determination and resilience of British troops as they march towards El Arish, North Sinai, Egypt, during the First World War. In the foreground, soldiers of the 1/11th London Regiment, part of the 162nd Infantry Brigade, 54th East Anglian Division (Desert Column), trudge along the sandy desert terrain, their faces set with focus and determination. The middle distance reveals horses pulling carriages, their hooves sinking into the sand, while in the far distance, camels laden with supplies make their way across the arid landscape. The British army's Desert Column was formed in response to the Ottoman Turkish advance into Egypt and Sudan, and this march to El Arish marked a crucial moment in the campaign to defend the Suez Canal and secure the Middle East for the Allied Powers. The date of this photograph is February 1917, and it serves as a poignant reminder of the harsh conditions and immense challenges faced by the soldiers during this period. The 54th East Anglian Division played a significant role in the Sinai and Palestine Campaign, ultimately contributing to the Allied victory in the Middle East.
