EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the RSR 2 / 6th Battalion of the Royal Sussex Regiment, standing proudly on the Kaisarihind Bridge over the majestic river Sutlej in India. Taken in 1917 during World War One, this remarkable image captures a moment frozen in time. The bridge itself is an impressive feat of engineering and serves as a symbol of progress and connectivity. Its sturdy structure spans across the powerful river, providing vital transportation links for both military personnel and local communities alike. The significance of this infrastructure cannot be understated, as it facilitated movement and communication during a tumultuous period in history. The soldiers from the 2 / 6th Battalion stand tall on the bridge, their uniforms reflecting their dedication to duty. Their presence evokes a sense of strength and resilience amidst challenging times. This postcard serves as a testament to their bravery and commitment to serving their country. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's esteemed Royal Sussex Regiment Collection, this photograph offers us a glimpse into an era long gone but not forgotten. It reminds us of the sacrifices made by those who fought valiantly during World War One. As we admire this historical artifact, let us reflect upon its significance - not only as a representation of India's rich heritage but also as a reminder that even amidst conflict, humanity can build bridges towards peace and progress.
