EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of bravery and camaraderie in the military, as we witness a re-enactment of an incident during the Second Boer War in South Africa. The scene depicts Colonel Edward Douglas Brown VC (1861-1940), a gallant officer from the 14th Hussars, demonstrating his heroic actions that earned him the Victoria Cross. On the fateful day of October 13, 1900, Colonel Brown, under heavy enemy fire, came to the aid of two of his wounded comrades - Sergeant Hersey and Lance-Corporal Trumpeter Leigh. With unwavering courage, Colonel Brown jumped off his horse, assisted the injured Sergeant Hersey onto his mount, and carried him for an impressive three-quarters of a mile to safety. After ensuring Sergeant Hersey's safety, he repeated the act with Lance-Corporal Trumpeter Leigh. This powerful image, taken in the 1910s, immortalizes the selfless heroism of Colonel Brown, who put his own life on the line to save his comrades. The uniformed cavalrymen, their horses poised and ready, pay tribute to this remarkable moment in military history. The equestrian display, with the jump and review gate in the background, adds to the grandeur and majesty of the scene. Colonel Brown's Victoria Cross, the highest decoration for valor in the British military, is a testament to his unwavering commitment to his comrades and the British Army. This re-enactment serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by brave soldiers like Colonel Brown, who put their lives on the line to protect and serve their country.
