EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a group of Depot Cooks from the Brigade of Guards during their training in July 1916. The image, taken in the midst of the First World War, showcases the determination and camaraderie of these essential military personnel. Dressed in their pristine white uniforms, complete with caps bearing the insignia of the Brigade of Guards, these cooks were responsible for preparing nutritious meals for the British Army. The photograph features a total of ten cooks, with six of them proudly sporting well-groomed moustaches, a common fashion trend during the 1910s. However, it is intriguing to note that only four of the gentlemen in the photograph are moustache-less. The cooks' expressions vary, with some looking directly at the camera, while others engage in animated conversations or gaze off into the distance, hinting at the diverse personalities within the group. The image provides a rare glimpse into the daily life of the military during the First World War, highlighting the importance of logistical support in maintaining the morale and health of the troops. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by these unsung heroes, who played a crucial role in ensuring the British Army was well-fed and ready for battle.
