EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant memorial photograph, titled "Memorial to the South Wales Borderers at Geluvelt Mill," captures the solemn tribute paid to the brave soldiers of the South Wales Borderers regiment who lost their lives during the First World War. The image, taken in 2016, depicts the memorial located at Geluvelt Mill in Ieper (Ypres), Belgium. The South Wales Borderers, a part of the British Army, played a significant role in the Battle of Ypres, one of the most brutal battles of World War I. The regiment suffered heavy casualties during the conflict, with many making the ultimate sacrifice for their country. The memorial, surrounded by lush greenery, stands as a testament to their bravery and sacrifice. The inscription on the memorial reads, "South Wales Borderers, 1914-1918." The hauntingly beautiful scene is further emphasized by the rolling hills and blue sky in the background, creating a stark contrast to the somber mood of the memorial. The memorial serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by the South Wales Borderers and all those who fought in the First World War. It is a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the enduring bond between the people of Wales and those who served in the regiment. The photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, is a powerful reminder of the past and the importance of remembering the sacrifices made by our ancestors. It is a poignant and moving tribute to the South Wales Borderers and all those who served and died in the First World War.
