EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the unusual and endearing bond between the soldiers of the Middlesex Regiment and their beloved pets. In this colorful lithograph, created by Edgar Alfred Holloway, we are transported back to a time when animals played an integral role in military life. The image showcases a mischievous monkey perched atop a trusty mule, both adorned with regimental insignia. The camaraderie between these unlikely companions is evident as they proudly pose for the camera. It is clear that these animals were not just pets but cherished members of the regiment. Regimental Pets of the British Army, published by Gale & Polden in 1915 or earlier, immortalizes this heartwarming scene. As we gaze upon this print from a private collection, we can't help but marvel at the unique connection formed between humans and wildlife. These brave soldiers found solace and joy in their animal companions amidst the chaos of war. The presence of monkeys within regiments was not uncommon during this era, adding an element of curiosity to military life. Through this extraordinary photograph, we are reminded that even in times of conflict, love and compassion can be found in unexpected places. This image serves as a testament to the resilience and humanity displayed by those who served in the Middlesex Regiment during challenging times.
