Summary
editDescriptionDuke of Connaught and General Sir Herbert Plumer about to inspect troops on road side (4687922259).jpg |
English: Duke of Connaught and General Sir Herbert Plumer, Western Front, during World War I. HRH Arthur, Duke of Connaught (1850-1942) and (to his right) General Sir Herbert Plumer (1857-1932). They appear to have just got out of the cars parked behind them. According to the caption they are about to inspect the troops. As today, this type of official function was perceived to be a major role for the monarchy and its offshoots and would have been photographed accordingly. Plumer, as commander of the 2nd Army, was well-regarded by his men who nicknamed him, 'Daddy'. Haig, however, was often frustrated by Plumer's cautious approach and detailed planning. |
