EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a moment of incredible heroism and bravery during the tumultuous events of World War I. 2nd Lieutenant Geoffrey Harold Woolley of the Queen Victoria's Rifles, a territorial regiment, is depicted earning the prestigious Victoria Cross on Hill 60. In this historical image, Woolley is seen continually throwing bombs in the heat of battle on the Western Front.
The intensity and danger of warfare are palpable in this scene as Woolley fearlessly faces enemy forces while carrying out his mission with unwavering determination. His actions exemplify true courage and selflessness in the face of adversity.
This snapshot from history serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by individuals like Woolley who put their lives on the line for their country during times of war. The significance of his actions on Hill 60 cannot be overstated, as they represent not only his personal bravery but also the collective spirit and resilience displayed by all those who served alongside him.
As we reflect on this poignant image, we are reminded of the profound impact that acts of heroism can have on shaping our understanding of history and honoring those who have made extraordinary contributions to society.
