EDITORS COMMENTS
- a rallying cry echoed by the soldiers of The First Battalion The Yorkshire Volunteers. This print captures the essence of camaraderie and dedication within this esteemed territorial army unit. Taken in 1992, as the battalion prepared to relocate from York to Coulby Newham, this image showcases members of HQ Company proudly donning their helmets. Led by Drum Major Malcolm Cooper, they stand united in their mission to find worthy replacements for experienced soldiers who will be departing with the move. The significance of these helmets extends beyond mere headgear; they symbolize strength, resilience, and commitment to serving one's country. Each soldier wears them with pride and purpose, ready to face any challenge that comes their way. In an era defined by change and transition - the 1990s - this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by those who serve in our armed forces. It is a testament to their unwavering loyalty and determination. As we reflect upon this snapshot from history, let us remember that behind every uniform lies a story waiting to be told. Let us honor these brave men and women who selflessly protect our nation's freedom. May their legacy inspire future generations to answer the call when duty beckons – if the helmet fits, please wear it!
