In this print titled "Suez Crisis 1956" we are transported back to a significant moment in history. The image showcases the Grenadier Guards and men of the Duke of Wellington Regiment at Blackbushe airport, preparing to board a Hermes airliner bound for the Mediterranean during the Suez Crisis. The seriousness etched on their faces reflects the gravity of the situation they were about to face. Dressed in their military uniforms, these brave soldiers opted to wear plimsolls instead of boots as they boarded the plane, ensuring that no damage would be done to its furnishings. This snapshot captures not only a specific event but also encapsulates an era marked by conflict and political tension. It serves as a reminder of how ordinary individuals were called upon to serve their country during times of war.
