EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Sussex Regiment Collection takes us back to a significant period in history - World War One. Titled "RSR 2 / 6th Battalion, In Mysore Zoo" this image offers a unique glimpse into the lives of soldiers stationed in India during the war. The photograph showcases four individuals named Campbell, Bennett, Smithers, and Gray. Set against the backdrop of Mysore Zoo's picturesque landscape, this snapshot captures a moment of respite for these brave men amidst their duties. It is fascinating to see how they found solace and connection with nature through animal husbandry during such turbulent times. The composition evokes a sense of camaraderie as these soldiers stand side by side, united by their shared experiences. Their expressions reflect both determination and weariness but also hint at moments of joy that could be found even amidst adversity. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's extensive archives under reference number RSR Acc 4545 2/6th Batt/314, this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during World War One. It allows us to appreciate not only the bravery displayed on battlefields but also the resilience shown by those who served far away from home
