EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Sussex Regiment Collection takes us back to 1917, amidst the chaos of World War One. The image showcases the RSR 2 / 6th Battalion soldiers experiencing a momentary respite from their duties as they navigate through the serene waters of the River Indus in India. The photograph captures a sailing boat gracefully gliding along the river, surrounded by breathtaking landscapes and scenery that seem untouched by war's devastation. It serves as a poignant reminder of how soldiers sought solace and found brief moments of tranquility amidst their arduous wartime responsibilities. The composition exudes an air of calmness and serenity, providing a stark contrast to the tumultuous times these brave men were living through. The lush greenery lining both sides of the riverbank adds to its picturesque charm, transporting viewers into this idyllic setting far away from battlefields. As we gaze upon this historical postcard preserved at West Sussex Record Office, it is impossible not to marvel at its beauty while contemplating what life must have been like for those soldiers stationed in India during WW1. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into their daily lives beyond combat - reminding us that even in times of war, humanity seeks solace in nature's embrace
