EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, Lieutenant William Leefe Robinson, a brave hero of the First World War, proudly receives the Victoria Cross (VC) from King George V at Buckingham Palace. The VC is the highest military decoration awarded for valor in the face of the enemy in the British and Commonwealth armed forces. Robinson earned this prestigious honor for his remarkable feat of destroying a German Zeppelin LZ 54 over the English village of Cuffley, Hertfordshire, on September 2, 1916. The image captures the essence of a momentous occasion, as the young lieutenant, dressed in his full military uniform, stands tall and confident as he accepts the coveted medal from the monarch. The King, dressed in his formal attire, looks intently at Robinson with a sense of pride and admiration. The scene is filled with a palpable sense of history being made, as the world watched with bated breath as the war in the skies above Europe continued to unfold. Robinson's heroic actions came at a time when the threat of Zeppelin raids loomed large over the British populace. The German airships, known for their devastating bombing campaigns, had wreaked havoc on civilian populations, and the British people longed for a victory against these aerial adversaries. Robinson's successful engagement with LZ 54 provided a much-needed morale boost for the British public, and his name quickly became synonymous with courage and bravery. The photograph is a testament to the indomitable spirit of the men and women who served during the First World War, and serves as a reminder of the pivotal role that air power played in the conflict. The image is a valuable historical artifact, capturing a moment of triumph and heroism that continues to inspire and captivate audiences to this day.
