EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the tumultuous backdrop of the First World War, a moment of tranquility unfolds as two British naval boats approach a pier. The sailors, a mix of young and seasoned men, wave to the crowd gathered on the shore, their faces etched with a mix of excitement, apprehension, and relief. The pier, with its quaint lighthouse standing tall in the background, serves as a beacon of safety and familiarity amidst the vast, unpredictable expanse of the sea. The boats, adorned with the Union Jack, proudly represent the might and resilience of the British Royal Navy. The people on the pier, some waving back, watch with a sense of pride and anticipation as their loved ones return from the battlefront. This poignant scene, captured during the war years of 1914-1918, serves as a poignant reminder of the human connection that transcends the chaos and uncertainty of war.
