EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant print captured by Between The Wars, we witness a heart-wrenching moment during World War II. The image portrays the Vicar of Sidcup bidding farewell to his beloved son, who has volunteered as part of the Artists Rifles on 3rd September 1939. The scene unfolds at a bustling train station, where emotions run high amidst the chaos and uncertainty that war brings. Dressed in his military uniform, the young volunteer stands tall beside his father, both men exuding an air of determination mixed with apprehension. As they stand on the platform surrounded by fellow soldiers and their families, one cannot help but notice the porter nearby diligently arranging luggage and bags for departure. This small detail serves as a reminder that countless others are also embarking on this journey into unknown territories. The photograph encapsulates not only the personal sacrifice made by individuals like this brave young man but also represents a broader narrative of sacrifice and duty felt across nations during wartime. Through its powerful imagery, this print captures a fleeting moment frozen in time - one filled with love, pride, fear, and hope all intertwined within each other's gaze. It serves as a poignant reminder of the immense sacrifices made by families torn apart by war while highlighting their unwavering support for those who answered their nation's call to arms.
