EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Calcutta Volunteer Battery, stationed at Bura Camp in Kenya during World War I, as they prepare for action with their 12-pounder guns. Dated 1916, this image offers a glimpse into the harsh realities of wartime life in East Africa during the First Great War. The soldiers, dressed in their uniforms and armed with their weapons, are seen intently focusing on their tasks, with the 12-pounder guns' massive carriages and wheels dominating the foreground. The African landscape can be seen in the background, providing a stark contrast to the military equipment and the men's determined expressions. The Calcutta Volunteer Battery was a part of the Indian Army, which played a significant role in the East African campaign against the German forces. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers from all corners of the world during the 1910s, and the unyielding spirit of those who served in the face of adversity.
