EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history during World War One. In the midst of their camp, soldiers are seen synchronizing their watches with a clock mounted on a post. This seemingly mundane task held immense importance as it ensured unanimity of movement and perfect cooperation before an attack. The attention to detail showcased by these soldiers is commendable, highlighting the level of discipline and precision required in warfare. Each soldier's gaze is fixed upon the clock, emphasizing their dedication to keeping time regulation intact for tactical purposes. Published in 1934 as part of "The Pageant of the Century" this archival illustration offers us a glimpse into the past, reminding us of the great sacrifices made by those who served during this tumultuous period. Welsh photographer Ken captured this historical moment that exemplifies both unity and strategic planning within an army. The image serves as a testament to the vital role synchronization played in achieving success on the battlefield. As we reflect upon this photograph from over a century ago, we are reminded not only of the bravery displayed by these soldiers but also of how crucial teamwork and coordination are in times of conflict. It stands as an enduring symbol of sacrifice, determination, and unwavering commitment to duty.
