EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the heroic stand of L Battery, Royal Horse Artillery (RHA), during the skirmish at Nery, northern France, on 1 September 1914. The image is a poignant reminder of the bravery and determination of the British troops during the early days of the First World War. The Retreat from Mons was a pivotal moment in the conflict, with the Allied forces withdrawing from their initial positions in the face of the advancing German army. Amidst the chaos and confusion, L Battery, RHA, made a valiant stand against the enemy, buying precious time for their comrades to retreat. The scene depicted in the photograph shows the gunners of L Battery, their faces set with determination and resolve, firing their guns at the advancing German troops. The horses, too, display a sense of urgency and purpose, their ears pricked and eyes fixed on the enemy. The shells in mid-air add to the sense of intensity and danger, while the smoke rising in the background underscores the intensity of the battle. The Royal Horse Artillery was a renowned regiment in the British Army, known for its distinctive nickname 'The Horse' and its proud traditions. The men of L Battery, RHA, were no exception, and their heroic stand at Nery became a source of great pride and inspiration for the regiment and the British people. This photograph, taken in 1915, offers a glimpse into the harsh realities of trench warfare during the First World War. It serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by the soldiers of L Battery, RHA, and the many other brave men and women who fought on the Western Front during the 1910s.
