EDITORS COMMENTS
Peace Day Celebrations: A Triumphant Scene from the End of World War One 19 July 1919 marked a significant moment in history as the people of London came together to celebrate the end of the First World War. In this striking image from the Mary Evans Prints Online archive, we witness the Navy section of the Peace Day procession, with officers and men of the Second Battle Squadron making their way through the streets of London. The scene is filled with an air of victory and jubilation, as the soldiers, having fought bravely in the war, now march proudly through the city. The Duke of Cambridge's statue stands proudly in the background, a symbol of the late monarch's support for the British military during the conflict. The officers and men of the Battle Squadron are seen dividing to pass the statue, their uniforms gleaming in the sunlight. The crowds that line the streets are a sea of people, their faces filled with excitement and relief as they watch the parade. The spectators, a testament to the unity and resilience of the British Empire, cheer and clap as the soldiers pass by. This image captures the essence of the Peace Day celebrations, a day when the people of London came together to mark the end of a long and arduous war. The scene is a powerful reminder of the triumph of the human spirit, and the unbreakable bond between the military and the people they serve.
