This evocative photograph captures the moment of camaraderie and determination among the soldiers of the 1st Battalion Middlesex Regiment (Duke of Cambridge's Own) during their service in Cyprus between 1955 and 1958. The image is taken from an album of 101 photographs, which also includes newspaper cuttings, providing a unique insight into the experiences of these soldiers during their tour of duty. The photograph shows a group of soldiers, dressed in their military uniforms, standing in a semi-circle around a makeshift campfire. Their faces are illuminated by the flickering light of the fire, creating an atmosphere of warmth and companionship amidst the harsh conditions of their deployment. The soldiers appear focused and alert, their expressions conveying a sense of resolve and determination.
