EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Sussex Regiment Collection, held at West Sussex Record Office, takes us back to a significant moment in history. Captured between 1916 and 1919, it showcases the RSR 2 / 6th Battalion stationed at Dera Ishmael Khan in India during World War One. The image portrays an impressive feat of engineering - the Bridge of Boats. This vital infrastructure project was constructed to facilitate transport across the river, ensuring smooth movement of troops and supplies amidst challenging wartime conditions. The bridge stands as a testament to human ingenuity and determination in overcoming obstacles even in times of conflict. The photograph offers a glimpse into the daily lives of these brave soldiers who served their country far away from home. It captures their resilience and camaraderie as they navigate this foreign landscape with unwavering dedication. As we reflect upon this historical artifact, let us remember the countless sacrifices made by those who fought on distant shores during World War One. Their bravery and selflessness continue to inspire generations today
