EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of patriotism and duty that swept through London during the Second Boer War in 1901. The scene at St. Martin-in-the-Fields near Trafalgar Square depicts men of all ages and backgrounds intently reading a recruitment notice-board for the British Army. With the small, well-trained army needing to expand its ranks after two years of conflict, the call to arms resonated deeply with British men, leading to a surge in volunteers. The military services were in dire need of reinforcements to maintain the British Empire's presence in South Africa. The recruiting posters, adorned with images of brave soldiers and promises of adventure and honor, were a powerful incentive for young men to enlist. The sight of these potential recruits, gathered around the notice-board, is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by ordinary men during this pivotal moment in history. The Second Boer War marked a turning point in military recruitment strategies, as the British Army shifted towards mass enlistment and conscription, a trend that would continue in the decades to come.
