EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant photo print, taken on June 5,1916, we witness a solemn moment of farewell as Admiral Jellicoe bids adieu to Lord Kitchener and his party before their ill-fated embarkation on HMS Hampshire. Little did they know that tragedy awaited them at sea. The image captures the gravity of the situation as Lord Kitchener, donning a military overcoat, stands face-to-face with Admiral Jellicoe while Mr. H. J. O'Beirne from the Foreign Office receives a handshake from the commander-in-chief of the Grand Fleet. Lt. -Col. Fitzgerald can be seen standing on the gangway; he was Lord Kitchener's personal military secretary and would also meet his untimely demise aboard HMS Hampshire. Published in 1916 as part of "Field Marshal Lord Kitchener: His Life and Work for the Empire" this photograph serves as a haunting reminder of those lost during this tragic event. A total of 643 crew members perished when the ship struck a mine and sank. The image encapsulates both sorrow and bravery, immortalizing these individuals who dedicated their lives to serving their country during World War I. It is through photographs like these that we remember their sacrifice and honor their memory for generations to come.
