EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the jubilant atmosphere on VE Day in High Street, Bognor Regis, on 8 May 1945. As the news of victory spread like wildfire, a sea of exuberant faces flooded the streets, rejoicing in the end of World War Two. The image showcases a moment frozen in time when countless individuals came together to celebrate this historic milestone. In this snapshot from history, we witness an incredible display of unity and joy as many people take to the streets dancing to relayed music. Their spirits are lifted high by melodies that echo through every corner of Bognor Regis. It is evident that after years filled with fear and uncertainty, these resilient souls find solace in each other's company and revelry. The L Alouette Collection has preserved this invaluable piece of West Sussex's heritage at their esteemed West Sussex Record Office. This particular photograph bears reference number L Alouette/A/1/23/7 - a testament to its significance within their extensive archives. As we delve into this poignant scene captured by Frank Lalouette (not related to any commercial use), it serves as a reminder not only of the sacrifices made during wartime but also how communities can come together even amidst adversity. This image immortalizes both the resilience and unwavering spirit exhibited by those who called Bognor Regis home during one of humanity's darkest chapters – World War Two.
