EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in history - the Midhurst British Legion Church Parade of November 1934. Taken by renowned photographer George Garland, this print is part of the esteemed Garland Collection housed at the West Sussex Record Office. In this poignant image, we see Lord Cowdray standing tall as he inspects the troops before they embark on their march. The soldiers, dressed immaculately in their uniforms, exude discipline and pride. Their faces reveal a mix of determination and reverence for the occasion. The parade holds deep significance as it pays homage to those who served during World War I (1914-1918). It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by brave men who fought valiantly for their country's freedom. Lord Cowdray's presence adds an air of importance to the event, symbolizing unity between military leadership and civilian society. George Garland's skillful composition captures both the solemnity and grandeur of this historic gathering. The stark contrast between light and shadow creates a dramatic effect that enhances our emotional connection to these soldiers' stories. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from West Sussex County Council archives, we are transported back in time to witness a momentous occasion that honors our nation's heroes. It serves as a testament to their bravery while reminding us never to forget their sacrifice for future generations.
