EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Sussex Regiment Collection takes us back to 1918, amidst the chaos of World War One. The image showcases two magnificent bridges standing proudly in Chamba, India. These architectural marvels serve as a testament to human resilience and ingenuity during times of conflict. The landscape surrounding the bridges is breathtakingly beautiful, with lush greenery and majestic mountains forming a picturesque backdrop. It's hard not to be awestruck by the sheer scale and intricate construction of these structures, which undoubtedly played a vital role in connecting communities and facilitating transportation during this tumultuous period. As we delve into the details captured by this photograph, it becomes evident that these bridges were more than just physical connections; they symbolized hope for a brighter future amidst the darkness of war. They stood tall as reminders that even in times of destruction, humanity could come together to create something enduring and beneficial for all. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's extensive collection, this image serves as an invaluable historical artifact documenting both the triumphs of engineering prowess and the indomitable spirit exhibited by those who built them. Let us remember their efforts with gratitude as we reflect on our shared past and strive towards building a better future for generations to come.
