EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in history, showcasing the RSR 2 / 6th Battalion of the Royal Sussex Regiment during World War One. The image showcases a remarkable feat of engineering as it depicts a bridge of boats over the mighty Indus River at Dera Ishmael Khan in India. This vital infrastructure allowed troops to traverse this formidable waterway and continue their march towards victory. In the foreground, we see Major Peter Collins D. S. O. , leading his brave soldiers on horseback. His commanding presence exudes strength and determination, symbolizing the leadership that guided these troops through challenging times. The composition beautifully captures the disciplined formation of marching soldiers behind Major Collins, highlighting their unwavering commitment to duty. Each soldier carries a rifle with pride, ready to defend their country's honor. This photograph serves as an important reminder of the sacrifices made by these courageous men who fought for freedom during one of history's most tumultuous periods. It also pays tribute to the incredible teamwork and ingenuity required to construct such a crucial bridge amidst war-torn conditions. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's Royal Sussex Regiment Collection, this print offers us a glimpse into our shared past and honors those who served selflessly in defense of our nation.
