EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant trench sign, entitled "Do Not Stand About Here - Even If You Are Not Hit, Someone Else Will Be!", is a poignant reminder of the harsh realities of life in the trenches during World War I. The painted wooden sign, issued by the 46th (North Midland) Division, bears the divisional signs and serves as a stark warning to soldiers to stay clear of dangerous areas. The 46th (North Midland) Division was formed in August 1914, and its soldiers saw action on the Western Front from 1915 onwards. Trench warfare was a brutal and unforgiving experience, with soldiers living in cramped, muddy conditions and facing constant danger from enemy fire. Trench art, such as this sign, was a way for soldiers to express their creativity and add a touch of humanity to their surroundings. The sign's bold and clear lettering, along with the ominous warning, would have been easily visible to soldiers in the darkness of the trenches, reminding them of the importance of staying alert and avoiding unnecessary risks. The sign's inscription, "Issued by the 46th (North Midland) Division together with painted Divisional signs," adds to its historical significance, providing a tangible link to the soldiers who handled it during the war. The 1st Great Military Regiments of history are filled with stories of bravery, sacrifice, and resilience, and this trench sign is a testament to the harsh realities of life on the front lines. This painted wooden trench sign is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers during World War I and the importance of staying vigilant in the face of danger. Its historical significance and intricate details make it a valuable addition to any military history collection.
