EDITORS COMMENTS
Captain Hamilton Hugh Berners of the Irish Guards is depicted in this evocative photograph, taken during Officer Training Corps (OTC) exercises at Mytchett, Surrey, around 1913. Berners, a distinguished soldier and a native of County Cork, Ireland, is seen here in his military uniform, expertly mounted on horseback, with his men and tents in the background. The Irish Guards, an elite infantry regiment of the British Army, were renowned for their discipline, courage, and proud heritage. Berners' leadership and horsemanship are evident in this image, as he directs his troops with confidence and authority. The scene exudes a sense of camaraderie and preparation, as the soldiers go through their drills in the idyllic English countryside. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the pre-war military life of the Irish Guards, providing an insight into the training and daily routines of the officers and men. With horses and tents as the only indicators of the transient nature of military life, this image stands as a testament to the dedication and discipline of the soldiers who served in the British Army during this period.
