EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of departure for the Men of the 2nd Infantry Brigade of the Australian Imperial Force (AIF) as they embarked on the transports Hororata and Benaua from the port of Melbourne, Australia, on October 18, 1914. The image offers a poignant glimpse into the historic event that marked the beginning of Australia's involvement in the First World War. The soldiers, dressed in their uniforms and carrying their equipment, stand on the quay, their expressions a mix of anticipation and apprehension as they prepare to board the ships that will carry them across the vast expanse of the Indian Ocean to the battlefields of Europe. The Hororata and Benaua, anchored in the background, loom large against the backdrop of Melbourne's coastal skyline, their sails billowing in the wind. The 2nd Infantry Brigade, part of the 1st Division of the AIF, was one of the first major contingents of Australian troops to leave for the war. The sight of these men, who had only recently left their homes and families, boarding the ships at Melbourne's quay, would have been a powerful reminder of the sacrifices being made in the name of the Great War. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the courage and determination of the Australian soldiers who answered the call to arms, and the significant role that Australia played in the global conflict. The image is a testament to the enduring spirit of the Anzac legacy and the indelible mark that the Australian troops left on the annals of military history.
