RSR 2 / 6th Battalion, In the Bitter Lakes - A Glimpse into the Lives of British Soldiers during WWI in Egypt
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print from the Royal Sussex Regiment Collection offers a rare insight into the experiences of soldiers serving in Egypt during World War I. The image showcases members of the RSR 2 / 6th Battalion stationed at the Bitter Lakes, a strategic location along the Suez Canal. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness these brave men amidst their daily routines, surrounded by an awe-inspiring landscape that blends both beauty and danger. The vastness of the desert stretches endlessly behind them as they stand proudly alongside a warship anchored nearby. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its historical context but also in its ability to humanize those who fought for their country's cause. Each face tells a story - stories of camaraderie, resilience, and sacrifice. These soldiers endured harsh conditions far away from home, yet they remained steadfast and united. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's collection with reference number RSR Acc 4545 2/6th Batt/568, this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of our shared history and honors those who served valiantly during one of humanity's darkest chapters
