EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of determination and patriotism that swept through communities during World War One as men from Derby, England, assembled for the Great Army of Armleteers procession in 1915. The Derby Scheme was a recruitment initiative aimed at boosting enlistment numbers by offering financial incentives to those who signed up. In this powerful image, we see a sea of men, all proudly wearing their armbands as a symbol of their commitment to the cause. The year was 1915, and the war had been raging for over a year. The need for soldiers was urgent, and local communities were called upon to answer the call to arms. The Derby Scheme, also known as the Derby Scheme for Recruits, offered financial bonuses to those who enlisted, providing much-needed incentives for working-class men who were hesitant to leave their families and livelihoods behind. The scene depicted in the photograph is a procession of these brave men, making their way through the streets of Derby, each wearing their distinctive armbands. The sight of so many men, united in their commitment to the war effort, would have been a powerful and moving one for the local population. The determination and resolve in their faces are a testament to the sacrifices they were willing to make for their country. As we look at this historical photograph, we are transported back in time, to an era when the fate of the world hung in the balance, and ordinary men and women rose to the challenge. The Great Army of Armleteers procession is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the people of Derby and the wider community during World War One, and serves as a powerful reminder of the enduring power of the human spirit in times of crisis.
