This print captures a significant moment in history, showcasing the ceremony held at Windsor to honor the brave Zulu and Afghan War heroes. The atmosphere was simple yet profound, as the ceremony took place in semi-privacy. The courageous individuals who had displayed exceptional acts of bravery were assembled in a corridor, eagerly awaiting the arrival of Queen Victoria herself, accompanied by Lord Chelmsford. Amongst them stood Trooper Brown from Frontier Light House, donning his distinctive velveteen attire and wide awake hat. His presence sparked curiosity among onlookers, intrigued by his remarkable achievements and recognition by royalty. The image transports us back to 1881 during the Victorian era when state occasions held great significance within English society.

Preserved through this illustration from TopFoto's archives, it reminds us of an era where military service was highly esteemed and celebrated.
