EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Royal Sussex Regiment Memorial, situated in the picturesque Murree Hills of what is now Pakistan. Erected in memory of the fifteen soldiers and three women who lost their lives during the Black Mountain (Hazara) Expedition of 1888, this poignant monument stands as a testament to the sacrifices made by the British colonial forces during their campaigns along the North-West Frontier. The 2nd Battalion of the Royal Sussex Regiment was among the troops deployed in India during this period, participating in the arduous and dangerous Black Mountain Expedition. This military engagement was one of many battles fought between the British and local tribes during the late Victorian era, as the British Empire expanded its territories and influence in the region. The memorial, adorned with the names of the fallen soldiers and women, serves as a poignant reminder of the human cost of colonialism and the complex history of the North-West Frontier. The inscription on the memorial reads, "In memory of the officers, non-commissioned officers, and men of the 2nd Battalion, The Royal Sussex Regiment, who fell in the Black Mountain Expedition, 1888." The photograph, taken during the late 1880s, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the British Raj ruled over India and the North-West Frontier was a contested territory. The image, with its faded colors and weathered appearance, adds to the sense of history and nostalgia, making it a valuable addition to any collection of historical photographs or military memorabilia.
