EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the intensity and determination of the British gun battery in action during the First World War in Cameroon, West Central Africa. Circa 1914-1916, the scene depicts British soldiers expertly manning their artillery pieces, with Lieutenant Colonel Haywood DSO (Decorated for Distinguished Service Order) overseeing the operation from the right. The soldiers, clad in pith helmets and uniforms, display focused expressions as they prepare to fire, their bodies poised and ready for the next volley. The cannon, a symbol of power and resistance, is central to the image, its barrel pointed ominously towards the horizon. The African landscape, with its lush vegetation and vibrant colors, serves as a stark contrast to the grim reality of war. This powerful image offers a glimpse into the brutal and unforgiving nature of battle during the Great War, and the unwavering commitment of the British Army to defend their interests in foreign lands.
