EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the Battalion Signallers of the First Battalion, The Queens Own Royal West Kent Regiment in Poona, India. Steeped in history and bravery, this regiment played a significant role in various conflicts throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries. The image showcases a group of soldiers standing proudly under a majestic tree, their uniforms immaculate and their faces filled with determination. These men were not only skilled signallers but also courageous warriors who fought valiantly in battles such as Kassassin and Tel el-Kebir during the Egypt Intervention in 1882. As World War I erupted, they were among the first units to be deployed to France, becoming part of the esteemed 13th Infantry Brigade within the 5th Infantry Division. Engaging in major conflicts like the Battle of Mons on August 23rd, these brave soldiers demonstrated unwavering loyalty to their country. After years spent serving abroad, including participation in events like the Third Afghan War and quelling tribal rebellions on India's Northwest Frontier, they returned home to Britain in 1937. Published by The British Historical and Art Publishing Company in 1926 as part of A Pictorial Souvenir and History of the First Battalion, The Queens Own Royal West Kent Regiment; this print is an invaluable piece of historical documentation that pays tribute to these remarkable individuals who dedicated themselves selflessly to protect their nation's interests.
