EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Bangalore in 1916. The image showcases the brave soldiers of RSR 2 / 6th Battalion, diligently clearing up Bull Temple Road in Cubbon Town. As part of their duty during World War One, these men were not only defending their country but also engaging with local communities across the globe. The scene captures a moment of respite amidst the chaos and uncertainty of war. In this snapshot, we see a group of soldiers taking a brief pause from their arduous tasks. They stand beside an old-fashioned pump, surrounded by everyday objects such as jugs and pails that symbolize simplicity and domesticity even amidst wartime. The composition exudes a sense of camaraderie as these courageous individuals work together to restore order to this Indian town ravaged by conflict. Their uniforms bear the insignia of the Royal Sussex Regiment, proudly representing their allegiance and dedication to serving King and country. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's extensive collection, this postcard offers us a glimpse into history while honoring those who fought selflessly for our freedom. It serves as a reminder that even in times when nations are at odds, acts of kindness can bridge cultural divides and bring people together
