EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage lantern slide captures a poignant moment in history, as British Yeomanry troops stand proudly in Damascus during the First World War. The image transports us back to a time of conflict and sacrifice, when these brave soldiers fought bravely in the Holy Land of Palestine.
The Yeomanry, known for their distinctive uniforms and proud tradition of service, played a crucial role in the war effort. In this photograph, we see them standing tall against the backdrop of ancient Damascus, a city steeped in history and significance.
As we gaze upon this scene from over a century ago, we are reminded of the courage and resilience of those who served their country during one of the most tumultuous periods in modern history. The faces of these soldiers tell stories of hardship and determination, as they navigate through unfamiliar terrain far from home.
This print is not just a historical artifact; it is a window into the past that allows us to connect with those who came before us. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by countless individuals during times of war, and honors their memory for future generations to remember.
The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection has preserved this important piece of history for all to appreciate and reflect upon. It stands as a testament to the bravery and dedication shown by British Yeomanry troops during World War I.
