EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of discovery and curiosity as two young Boy Scouts pose with a washed-up mine on the Suffolk coast in 1914. The mine, a relic of the First World War, had been carried ashore between Aldeburgh and Southwold, joining several others that had been unearthed during this time. The fuse of the mine had been carefully removed, a necessary precaution to ensure the safety of those who came across it. The image offers a glimpse into a time when the horrors of the Great War reached the shores of England, bringing the realities of the frontline to the home front. The boys, dressed in their uniforms, appear unafraid, their expressions a mix of excitement and wonder. Yet, the mine serves as a stark reminder of the destructive power of the conflict that was raging across Europe. The discovery of these mines on the Suffolk coast was a common occurrence during the war years, as the North Sea became a battleground for naval forces. The mines were used extensively by both sides to disrupt enemy shipping and blockades. The presence of these devices on the coast served as a constant reminder of the ongoing conflict and the threat it posed, even to those far from the frontlines. This photograph, taken in 1914, offers a unique perspective on the impact of the war on everyday life, and the curiosity and bravery of the young generation who lived through it. It is a poignant reminder of a time when the world was forever changed by the events of the First World War.
