EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photo print, titled "Family Group - October 1940" captures a heartfelt moment frozen in time. In the midst of World War II, a brave serviceman sits proudly in his military uniform, surrounded by his loving wife and two adorable children. The image exudes both strength and vulnerability as this family clings to one another during uncertain times. The wife's expression reflects unwavering support for her husband's duty while also revealing the weight of worry that rests upon her shoulders. With their daughter nestled close to her mother's side and a babe-in-arms cradled gently in the father's arms, it is evident that this portrait symbolizes hope for a brighter future amidst the chaos of war. This treasured keepsake from the Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by countless families during wartime. It encapsulates not only their love but also their resilience in preserving unity despite separation caused by military service. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we are transported back to an era where every embrace was cherished, each smile held deeper meaning. This photograph stands as a testament to the enduring spirit of those who served on behalf of our nation and reminds us all to appreciate the precious moments spent with loved ones at home – even amidst adversity.
