EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Men of the Inns of Court Officer Training Corps (OTC) Brigade on a march through the streets of London during a drilling exercise in 1914, at the onset of the First World War. The Inns of Court OTC was an essential part of the British Army's Territorial Force, and its members were all drawn from the legal profession. The image showcases the dedication and commitment of these men, who put aside their legal practices to answer the call to duty. Dressed in their military uniforms and carrying their equipment, they exude a sense of discipline and resolve as they make their way through the bustling city streets. The Inns of Court OTC Brigade was one of many Officer Training Corps units that played a vital role in the early stages of the war, providing trained officers for the British Army. This historical photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, providing a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by these legal professionals during a time of great upheaval and uncertainty. The image is a testament to the enduring spirit of service and duty, and serves as an important reminder of the significant contributions made by the legal profession during the First World War.
