EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a group of Scottish fishermen, clad in their traditional attire, making their way into the barracks at Portsmouth in response to the call of duty on the outbreak of the First World War in August 1914. Belonging to the Royal Naval Reserve (RNR), these men were an essential part of the naval forces, bringing their valuable skills and knowledge of the sea to the war effort. The archway of the barracks frames the scene, with the group walking determinedly towards their new life as soldiers. The image is a poignant reminder of the thousands of men from Scotland who answered the call to serve their country, leaving their fishing communities behind to fight in the Great War. This historical photograph, taken on the brink of a global conflict, offers a glimpse into the lives of these brave Scottish fishermen and their sacrifice for their nation.
