EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative group photograph captures the members of the 2nd Battalion of the Shropshire Volunteer Rifle Corps, proudly displaying their grey camouflage uniforms, a groundbreaking innovation in military attire at the time. The year is 1891, and the setting is a grand, neoclassical building adorned with fluted ionic columns and a majestic doorway. The soldiers, led by their Captain, Sergeant Dodd, and Lieutenant Huntbach, have gathered around a table laden with trophies, their faces beaming with pride and accomplishment. At the center of the image, Lance-Corporal A Matthews receives a shooting competition trophy from Major Algernon Heber-Percy, in recognition of his team's third consecutive victory. The soldiers in the back row include Privates Barker, H Jones, Huxley, and Spencer, while the front row features Lance-Sergeants Price, Mullard, and the esteemed Sergeant Dodd. Stars beneath their names signify the number of times they have participated in the winning team. The sepia tones of the photograph add to the nostalgic atmosphere, transporting us back to an era of military history where tradition, camaraderie, and skillful marksmanship were the cornerstones of military training. This image serves as a testament to the dedication and achievements of the Shropshire Volunteer Rifle Corps during the late Victorian era.
