EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the 2nd Royal Munster Fusiliers on their way to assume strike duty during the Railway Strike in Birmingham, August 1911. The soldiers, led by their officers, march from New Street Station towards Great Brook Street Barracks with determined expressions and military precision. The event took place before the First World War, during a period when industrial actions were becoming increasingly common in Britain. The 2nd Royal Munster Fusiliers, part of the British Army, were called upon to maintain order and uphold the law during this labor dispute. The image is taken from an album of 160 photographs compiled by Lt Col H B Holt during his tenure with the Royal Munster Fusiliers from 1909 to 1911. This photograph is an intriguing snapshot of history, showcasing the role of the military in maintaining public order during industrial unrest. The scene unfolds in the bustling city of Birmingham, in the West Midlands region of England. This image, associated with the Royal Military Academy Woolwich, offers a unique perspective on an important chapter in the history of labor relations and civil unrest in Britain.
