EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "A Sqdn Tanks," is a striking image from the album compiled by Major Wilfred Herbert James Sale, MC, of the 3rd/4th County of London Yeomanry (Sharpshooters) during World War Two. The photograph, dating from 1944, shows a row of tanks, their metal surfaces reflecting the sun and casting long shadows on the ground. The tanks, with their menacing presence and military precision, convey the raw power and determination of the Allied forces during this pivotal period in history. Major Sale, an accomplished military officer and photographer, meticulously documented his experiences and those of his unit during their deployment in Italy between 1943 and 1944. This photograph is just one of the 246 images in his album, each one providing a unique glimpse into the daily life and operations of the 3rd/4th County of London Yeomanry (Sharpshooters) during the war. The accompanying index volume, filled with insightful captions, adds depth and context to the images, allowing us to better understand the events and emotions captured in this photograph. The tanks in the photograph are a testament to the technological advancements and military might of the time, and serve as a reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and women who served in the armed forces during World War Two. This powerful image is a poignant reminder of the courage and resilience displayed by the Allied forces in the face of adversity, and stands as an important historical record of a pivotal moment in world history.
