EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, showcasing the RSR 2 / 6th Battalion stationed at Temple, Ulsoor near Bangalore in 1916. The Royal Sussex Regiment Collection at West Sussex Record Office has preserved this remarkable image, shedding light on the brave soldiers who served during World War One. Dressed immaculately in their uniforms, these valiant men stand tall with an air of determination and pride. Their presence in India adds a unique dimension to their story, as they navigate unfamiliar terrain while upholding their duty to protect and serve. This photograph serves as a testament to the global impact of WW1 and highlights the diverse locations where British troops were deployed. The inclusion of Temple in the backdrop holds immense significance, symbolizing not only a place of worship but also representing the rich cultural heritage that surrounded these soldiers during their time abroad. It is worth noting that Hinduism played an integral role within Indian society and its influence likely shaped interactions between locals and British forces. As we reflect upon this poignant image from our past, it reminds us of the sacrifices made by those who fought for peace amidst tumultuous times. Let us honor their memory by acknowledging their unwavering dedication to preserving freedom and recognizing the profound impact they had on shaping world history.
