EDITORS COMMENTS

This poignant print captures the devastating aftermath of a bombing raid on Petworth boys school, taken on 29th September 1942. The once proud buildings now lie in ruins, their walls reduced to rubble and debris scattered across the grounds. In this scene of destruction, military personnel can be seen diligently clearing the wreckage with spades and shovels, as they work tirelessly to restore some semblance of order amidst chaos. The image is a stark reminder of the horrors endured during World War Two, as men in uniform laboriously remove remnants of destruction caused by enemy bombs. Their determination is palpable as they navigate through piles of bricks and twisted metal, each step bringing them closer to rebuilding what was lost. A military lorry stands nearby, serving as a constant reminder that this site was not just another casualty but an integral part of wartime efforts. The presence of these workers signifies resilience in the face of adversity; their unwavering commitment to restoring normalcy shines through even in such dire circumstances. Preserved within the George Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office, this photograph serves as both a historical record and a testament to human strength amidst devastation. It reminds us that war leaves scars not only on landscapes but also on hearts and minds. As we gaze upon this haunting image, let us remember those who sacrificed so much during World War Two and honor their memory by striving for peace in our own time.
