EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the early 20th century, we are transported back to a pivotal moment in history during World War One. The image showcases Major Gerrad of the Royal Flying Corps at the center, flanked by Lieutenant Robinson of the Royal Navy on his left and Captain Lambert of armoured trains on his right. These three distinguished officers stand outside an Antwerp hotel, their uniforms exuding authority and bravery. Taken circa October 8th, 1914, this snapshot captures a crucial decision-making day - when it was determined that the Naval Brigade must be evacuated from Antwerp. The gravity of their mission is palpable as they gather outside this historic building. The intensity of conflict can be seen etched upon their faces; each man carries with him a sense of duty and responsibility towards their respective branches of service. Their presence together symbolizes unity among different military divisions working towards a common goal amidst the chaos and uncertainty that war brings. Photographed by Ivor Castle for Memory Lane Prints, this print serves as a poignant reminder not only of these brave men but also pays homage to all those who served during World War One. It stands as a testament to their sacrifice and unwavering commitment in defending their country against adversity.
