EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative lantern slide captures a moment in the history of the Royal Engineers during the Battle of the Somme in July 1916. The image shows a group of British officers huddled around a communication trench, their focused expressions suggesting the importance of their work. The setting is the Somme frontline during World War One, with the date of 1 July 1916 inscribed on the slide. The officers, dressed in uniforms adorned with the distinctive 'RE' insignia denoting their affiliation with the Royal Engineers, are likely at a headquarters post, planning and coordinating engineering efforts to support the ongoing military campaign. One officer in the foreground wears a wristwatch, a reminder of the passing time and the urgency of their mission. This lantern slide is one of 50 associated with the Navy and World War One, and is a poignant reminder of the critical role the Royal Engineers played in the War at Sea during this period. The slide is in good condition, with clear details and vibrant colors, and offers a unique glimpse into the past.
