EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a group of officers from the 109th Regiment of Foot (Bombay Infantry) in approximately 1870. The photograph, taken by an unknown photographer in India, showcases the distinguished men who served in this regiment during that time. The 109th Regiment was initially established by the East India Company as the 3rd Bombay (European) Regiment in 1853. However, it later transitioned to British Army service in 1862 and was given its numerical designation as the 109th on the order of precedence. This particular image is one of five photographs related to prominent figures such as General Kitchener and Colonel Rss Baden-Powell, along with other members of the regiment and the Second Reserve Cavalry Regiment. It is part of a collection housed at the National Army Museum in London. Capturing a moment frozen in time, this photograph offers us a glimpse into history and allows us to appreciate these brave individuals who dedicated their lives to military service. Their uniforms exude authority and professionalism while their expressions convey pride and determination. As we look upon this image, we are reminded of their sacrifices and contributions towards maintaining peace and security during an era marked by significant global changes. This print serves as both a historical artifact and a testament to honor those who have served our country with unwavering dedication.
