EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of respite and camaraderie among officers of the British military at the Army & Navy Club in London. The painting in the background, "Saving The Colours" by Robert Gibbs, adds a poignant historical context to the scene. The painting depicts The Guards at Inkerman, an iconic moment from the Crimean War on 5th November 1854. In the foreground, we see Lieutenant Charles G. Kennaway, a decorated officer with a distinguished military career. In 1854, he served in the 5th (Reserve) Battalion, Grenadier Guards (Machine Gun Battalion), and was present during the Battle of Inkerman where the painting is set. Fast forward to October 1914, Kennaway was a 2nd Lieutenant attached to the 6th Battalion (Perthshire Battalion) The Black Watch (Royal Highlanders) during World War I. By June 1917, he had been promoted to Full Lieutenant, having been wounded in the line of duty. The officers in this photograph, with their weary expressions and relaxed posture, offer a glimpse into the human side of military life, both past and present. The painting in the background, with its iconic depiction of the British military in action, serves as a reminder of the sacrifices and heroism that these officers and countless others have displayed throughout history.
