EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of bravery and selflessness during the devastating Kent floods in November 1960. In this image, soldiers from the esteemed 36 Royal Engineers can be seen coming to the aid of a stranded motorist in flooded Maidstone. The night was treacherous, with heavy rain pouring down relentlessly, turning roads into rivers and leaving residents helpless. Amidst the chaos, these valiant soldiers stepped forward to lend a helping hand. Clad in their protective clothing, they fearlessly waded through waist-deep water to reach the distressed individual trapped inside their vehicle. Their determination and resilience shine through as they work together to ensure everyone's safety. The scene is illuminated by car headlights reflecting off the water's surface, casting an ethereal glow on this act of heroism. It serves as a reminder of how ordinary individuals can rise above adversity when faced with extraordinary circumstances. Decades have passed since that fateful night, but this photograph remains a testament to the unwavering spirit of those who serve their country selflessly. It stands as a tribute not only to these brave soldiers but also to all those who have dedicated themselves to protecting others in times of need. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot today, it reminds us that even amidst tragedy and destruction, there are always shining moments where humanity prevails against all odds – forever etched within our collective memory.
