EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the moment of triumph for Captain Thomas Bell of the Royal Welsh Fusiliers during the Battle of Alma in the Crimean War in 1854. The Battle of Alma was a pivotal engagement in the larger Crimean War, fought between Russia and an alliance of European powers, including the United Kingdom. In this photograph, we see Captain Bell, a brave and distinguished soldier, standing victoriously over a captured Russian gun. His determined expression and upright posture convey his leadership and courage in the face of adversity. The Battle of Alma took place on September 20, 1854, near the Alma River in Crimea. The British and French forces, led by Lord Raglan and General Canrobert, respectively, faced off against the Russian army under the command of General Menshikov. The battle raged for over 12 hours, resulting in heavy casualties on both sides. Captain Bell's heroism during the Battle of Alma was noteworthy. He led his men in a successful assault on a Russian battery, capturing several guns and taking many prisoners. For his valiant actions, he was awarded the Victoria Cross, the highest decoration for gallantry in the face of the enemy that could be awarded to British and Commonwealth forces. This historical photograph is a testament to the bravery and determination of Captain Bell and the soldiers of the Royal Welsh Fusiliers during the Battle of Alma. It offers a glimpse into the past, providing us with a deeper understanding of the events and the individuals who shaped the course of history during the Crimean War.
