EDITORS COMMENTS
Major John Begg, the Canadian officer second in command during the Dieppe raid of August 1942, proudly displays his well-deserved Distinguished Service Order at an investiture ceremony on 27th October 1942. This print from Memory Lane Prints captures a moment of triumph and recognition amidst the chaos and sacrifice of World War Two. In this powerful image, Major Begg stands tall in his military uniform, exuding strength and determination. The lines etched on his face tell a story of resilience and bravery as he played a crucial role in Operation Jubilee - the ill-fated assault on Dieppe that aimed to weaken German defenses along the French coast. The Dieppe raid was a pivotal moment in history, marked by heavy casualties and valuable lessons learned for future Allied operations. Major Begg's leadership and unwavering commitment to duty undoubtedly contributed to the success achieved amidst such adversity. This print serves as a poignant reminder of those who fought valiantly during this dark period in our world's history. It pays tribute not only to Major John Begg but also to all soldiers who selflessly served their countries with honor. As we reflect upon this photograph, let us remember the sacrifices made by these brave men and women who fought for freedom against tyranny. Their courage continues to inspire generations today.
