EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Sussex Regiment Collection takes us back to a significant chapter in history - World War One. The image showcases three distinguished officers of the 2nd/6th Battalion, namely Captain Holmes, Captain Campbell, and Captain Mackay. Their stern yet resolute expressions reveal their unwavering commitment to duty during this tumultuous period. The backdrop of the photograph transports us to India, where these brave men were stationed during the war. The vast landscape behind them exudes an air of mystery and adventure, reminding us that even amidst conflict, nature's beauty persists. One intriguing detail captured in this snapshot is the presence of a cigarette held delicately between Captain Holmes' fingers. This small act serves as a poignant reminder that even in times of great adversity, soldiers sought solace and moments of respite wherever they could find it. Preserved by West Sussex County Council's Record Office with reference number RSR Acc 4545 2/6th Batt/492, this photograph offers a glimpse into the lives and experiences of those who served their country during World War One. It stands as a testament to their bravery and sacrifice for future generations to remember
