EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time during the turbulent year of 1936, as students from Bedford College for Physical Education (now Bedford New College), dig a trench at Lansdowne, London. The image is a poignant reminder of the Munich Crisis, a pivotal moment in the lead up to the Second World War. The Munich Crisis, also known as the Sudeten Crisis, began in September 1938 when Adolf Hitler demanded that Czechoslovakia cede the Sudetenland, a region inhabited mainly by ethnic Germans, to Germany. The crisis escalated, and the situation reached a critical point in late September when British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain announced that he would travel to Munich to negotiate with Hitler. Amidst the political turmoil, life continued for students at Bedford College. This photograph shows a group of students, likely participating in a Physical Education class, digging a trench as part of a drill or exercise. The image is a stark contrast to the unfolding global events, yet it serves as a reminder of the importance of preparing for the unknown. The students, dressed in their PE uniforms, work diligently, shovels in hand, as their teacher looks on. The trench, which appears to be shallow and narrow, is a symbol of their determination and resilience. The image also highlights the role of education in shaping the future, as these students prepare for an uncertain future. This photograph is a valuable historical document, offering a glimpse into a pivotal moment in history. It is a poignant reminder of the importance of preparedness, resilience, and the role of education in shaping the future. The students in this photograph may have been unaware of the historical significance of their actions, but their image stands as a testament to the spirit of the times.
