EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of respite and camaraderie among the Soldiers of the Army Service Corps during their Autumn Campaign in Wiltshire, England, in 1872. The interior of the barrack canteen at Bottle Bush Down is filled with the warm glow of flickering lanterns and the convivial atmosphere of men relaxing after a long day. The soldiers, dressed in their uniforms, sit at wooden tables, some holding tankards of ale or pipes in hand, while others play cards or chat with one another. At the center of the scene, a pet dog, adorned with a medal, rests on a barrel. The medal, as reported by the Illustrated London News, is usually awarded to those of the corps who served with the Military Train during the New Zealand War of 1864. The presence of the dog adds a touch of homeliness and companionship to the scene, reminding us that even in the midst of military life, there were moments of comfort and relaxation. The canteen, with its rough-hewn walls and wooden shelves lined with bottles, is a testament to the simple pleasures of the 1870s military camp. The soldiers' relaxed expressions and easy banter convey a sense of camaraderie and belonging, highlighting the social nature of military life and the importance of community, even in the most challenging of circumstances.
