EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the stoic presence of a Welsh Borderer, a member of the 24th South Wales Borderers regiment, standing duty at his post along the military border between Wales and England in the late 19th century. The year is circa 1895, and the soldier's expression conveys a sense of vigilance and determination as he scans the horizon for any signs of intrusion. The 24th South Wales Borderers, also known as the 'Welsh' or 'South Wales' Borderers, were an infantry regiment of the British Army with a rich history dating back to 1689. Originally raised to defend against threats from neighboring countries, the regiment saw action in numerous conflicts, including the Napoleonic Wars, the Crimean War, and both World Wars. The soldier in this photograph wears the distinctive uniform of the 24th South Wales Borderers, with its red facings and distinctive 'Welsh' collar. The collar, which features a black and gold Welsh dragon, was adopted in 1881 as a symbol of the regiment's Welsh heritage. The soldier's rifle slung over his shoulder and the fixed bayonet at the ready underscore his readiness for action. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a window into the daily life of a soldier on the Welsh border during a time of heightened military tension. It is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and women of the British military throughout history, and the vital role they played in protecting the borders of their country.
