Conscientious objectors parade for a photograph
Many men refused to bear arms, for a variety of reasons. These men are Quakers and opposed to fighting on religious grounds. Unless they volunteered for roles such as this, under the aegis of the Red Cross, the men could be imprisoned. Later on in the war, military objectors enlisted in the specially formed Defence Corps

EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful image captures a group of conscientious objectors parading for a photograph during World War I. These men, who refused to bear arms for various reasons, are depicted here as Quakers who opposed fighting on religious grounds. In order to avoid imprisonment, many of these individuals volunteered for roles such as this one under the Red Cross.
The photo serves as a reminder of the diverse beliefs and convictions held by those caught up in the turmoil of war. While some were willing to enlist in defense corps or take on non-combat roles, others stood firm in their refusal to participate in any form of military action.
As we reflect on this historical moment, it is important to recognize the courage and sacrifice shown by these conscientious objectors. Their commitment to peace and their willingness to endure hardship rather than compromise their principles is truly commendable.
This print from Mary Evans Prints Online not only documents a specific event during WWI but also highlights the ongoing importance of standing up for what you believe in, even when faced with overwhelming pressure to conform.
