Spahi regiment of French forces in The Western Desert. World War Two
Spahi regiment of French forces in The Western Desert. World War Two.
Spahis were light cavalry regiments of the French army recruited primarily from the indigenous populations of Algeria, Tunisia and Morocco. The modern French Army retains one regiment of Spahis as an armoured unit, with personnel now recruited in mainland France. Senegal also maintains a mounted unit with spahi origins as a presidential escort: the Red Guard.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the Western Desert during World War Two, where the Spahi regiment of French forces stands proudly. The Spahis were renowned light cavalry regiments recruited from Algeria, Tunisia, and Morocco. Their presence in this arid landscape symbolizes their unwavering commitment to defending their homeland. In this snapshot frozen in time on December 13th, 1940, we witness the resilience and bravery of these soldiers amidst a tumultuous period in history. As they stand tall against the backdrop of sand dunes and an endless horizon, one can't help but admire their stoic determination. The significance of this image extends beyond its historical context. It serves as a reminder that unity transcends borders; it is not limited to nationality or ethnicity. These indigenous troops fought alongside their French counterparts with unwavering loyalty and shared purpose. Today, while mainland France retains one regiment of Spahis as an armored unit with personnel recruited locally, Senegal also maintains a mounted unit with spahi origins known as the Red Guard - serving as a presidential escort. As we gaze upon this poignant photograph captured by Official from Memory Lane Prints, we are reminded not only of the sacrifices made during World War Two but also of the enduring spirit that unites people across nations in times of conflict.
