EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures Major Samuel Montagu Bruce, a gallant officer in the Indian Cavalry's 37th Lancers, who made the ultimate sacrifice during the First World War. Major Bruce was the third son of the late Colonel Edward Bruce of the 19th Lancers, also known as "Fanes Horse," and his wife, Mrs. Bruce, residing at "Kingsley" in Cherry Garden Avenue, Folkestone. The image, taken in 1918, pays tribute to Major Bruce's service and bravery. The Major's distinguished military heritage is evident, with his father's regiment, the 19th Lancers, a renowned and historic cavalry unit in the British Army. Major Bruce's own military career culminated in his appointment as a Major in the Indian Cavalry's 37th Lancers. The First World War, which began in 1914, marked a significant turning point in world history. The 1910s were a decade of unparalleled upheaval, with the conflict claiming the lives of millions, including Major Bruce. His inclusion in the Roll of Honour is a testament to his valour and dedication to duty. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the brave men and women who fought in the First World War. It is a powerful symbol of the enduring spirit of those who answered the call to defend their countries and uphold the values of freedom and democracy.
