EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the image of a private soldier of the 17th Regiment of Foot, later known as the Leicestershire Regiment, during the Crimean War in 1854. The soldier, identified only as Malcolm, wears the distinctive uniform of the regiment, which includes a red coat with green facings and a bearskin hat adorned with a leek and a monogram of the regiment's badge. The Crimean War was a significant military conflict in the mid-19th century, pitting the British Empire and its allies against Russia. The 17th Regiment of Foot, raised in 1685, had a long and distinguished history in the British Army, serving in various campaigns throughout Europe and the colonies. Malcolm's expression is one of determination and focus, reflecting the intense training and discipline required of soldiers during this era. His posture is erect, and his rifle is slung over his shoulder, ready for action. The photograph provides a glimpse into the daily life of a soldier during this period, offering a glimpse into the past and the sacrifices made by ordinary men in the name of their country. The Leicestershire Regiment went on to see further action in various conflicts, including the Second Boer War and World War I, before being amalgamated into the Royal Leicestershire Regiment in 1959. This photograph serves as a reminder of the regiment's rich history and the important role it played in the British military.
