EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the brave soldiers of RSR 2 / 6th Battalion, HMS Glory, during their deployment in Egypt amidst the tumultuous years of World War One. The Royal Sussex Regiment Collection at West Sussex Record Office proudly preserves this historical gem, offering a glimpse into the lives and experiences of these valiant men. Taken between 1916 and 1919, this photograph showcases the battalion's presence near the Suez Canal. As one gazes upon it, a sense of awe washes over as we witness not only the vastness of this iconic waterway but also the imposing warship that stands tall against its backdrop. The image serves as a poignant reminder of how crucial control over such strategic locations was during wartime. The significance of this photo extends beyond its visual appeal; it symbolizes sacrifice, resilience, and unwavering dedication to duty. These courageous soldiers faced unimaginable challenges in an unfamiliar land far from home. Their commitment to protecting our freedom is immortalized within this single frame. Thanks to West Sussex County Council's commitment to preserving history for future generations, we can now appreciate and honor these unsung heroes who fought selflessly for our nation's cause. This remarkable piece offers us an opportunity to reflect on their sacrifices while reminding us never to take our liberties for granted
