The soldiers, with their rifles slung over their shoulders and their gaze fixed on their targets, are fully immersed in their training. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the daily life of a British soldier during the war. As they practice their shooting skills, these brave men prepared themselves for the challenges that lay ahead.
