EDITORS COMMENTS
RSR 2 / 6th Battalion, Gunfire 5.30 am, Cornwallis Barracks, Bangalore 1916". This print from the Royal Sussex Regiment Collection takes us back to a significant moment in history - World War One. The image depicts soldiers of the RSR's 2nd/6th Battalion at Cornwallis Barracks in Bangalore during the year 1916. In this early morning scene, we witness a group of brave men gathered around a kettle, their faces reflecting both weariness and determination. As they prepare for another day on the front lines, these soldiers find solace in a simple ritual - sharing a cup of rum-infused tea. The setting itself exudes an aura of camaraderie amidst adversity. Surrounded by barracks that have become their temporary home away from home, these warriors forge bonds that will last a lifetime. Their unwavering commitment to duty is palpable as they gather together before facing the challenges that lie ahead. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by countless individuals during World War One. It encapsulates not only the physical hardships endured but also highlights moments of respite and connection amidst chaos. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's extensive collection, this postcard offers us an intimate glimpse into history and pays homage to those who served with valor and resilience. Let it serve as a testament to their bravery and remind us never to forget their sacrifice for future generations.
