EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the moment of departure for the 2nd Scots Guards as they leave the historic Tower of London on September 15, 1914. Amidst the backdrop of an uncertain and ominous future, these brave soldiers, clad in their distinctive tartan kilts and bearskins, march steadfastly towards the unknown, carrying their weapons and equipment. The Tower of London, a symbol of British history and heritage, serves as a poignant reminder of the peace and security that was about to be shattered by the ravages of World War I. The 2nd Scots Guards, a distinguished regiment with a rich history dating back to the 17th century, played a significant role in the early months of the war. They saw action in the Battle of the Marne and the Battle of Ypres, among others, and their bravery and tenacity were instrumental in helping to defend the British Empire against the German onslaught. This photograph is a testament to the courage and resilience of the soldiers who left their homes and families to fight for their country during a time of great upheaval and uncertainty. It is a reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and women of the armed forces, and the debt of gratitude we owe to them for their service and bravery. As we reflect on the events of a century ago, this image serves as a powerful reminder of the enduring spirit of the British military and the importance of remembering our history, both in times of peace and in times of war.
