EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant image captures the spirit of sacrifice and patriotism during World War I, as embodied in this original WWI poster and King George V's heartfelt letter from 1915. The poster, printed in black and white, features a stern yet determined monarch, with the caption "To My People" and an appeal for "More Men for the Army." The King's letter, written on Buckingham Palace letterhead, is a personal plea for volunteers to join the British forces in their military effort. Dated August 1915, the letter reads, "My dear People, I have been deeply moved by the unanimous response to my recent appeal for volunteers to serve in the Army and Navy. But the war continues, and more men are needed to ensure the safety and freedom of our Empire. I urge you all to consider your duty to your King and Country and to offer your services without delay." The combination of the poster and the letter serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made during wartime, and the importance of unity and patriotism in the face of adversity. This historic artifact is a testament to the courage and resilience of the British people during the First World War, and a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by generations past.
