East Surrey Regiment kick footballs

Soldiers of the East Surrey regiment advance through heavy fire towards enemy lines, kicking footballs as they go. The footballs were provided as a means of encouraging the men to attack. Needless to say, the footballs made a lot more ground than many of the men. Date: 1916

EDITORS COMMENTS
In the heart of the Western Front during World War 1, the East Surrey Regiment soldiers advanced towards enemy lines with an unexpected addition to their military equipment – footballs. In the chaotic and harrowing conditions of trench warfare, morale was a crucial factor in the outcome of battles. To boost the spirits and determination of his men, an officer of the East Surrey Regiment came up with an ingenious idea. As they charged through heavy enemy fire, the soldiers kicked the footballs, creating a surreal yet uplifting sight amidst the devastation of war. The footballs, with their distinctive white and black pattern, made a striking contrast against the muddy terrain and the grey, smoky sky. The men's focus on the simple act of kicking the ball forward propelled them forward, making more ground than many of them would have in the face of relentless gunfire. This powerful image captures the indomitable spirit of the soldiers as they pressed on, demonstrating the human capacity for resilience and creativity even in the most challenging of circumstances.
