1999 Armoured Challenger Direction Media Miles Photographer Reservist Serve Tank Volunteered
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this image from 1999, a British Challenger tank follows a farm boy and his cow across a bridge. This photograph is one of 48 color images taken by Sgt. David John Miles, a dedicated reservist who volunteered to serve with 4 Armoured Brigade as their brigade photographer under the guidance of Media Operations (Media Ops) during the Kosovo conflict. Sgt. Miles' exceptional work was showcased in the exhibition "Kosovo - a personal view" at Worthing Museum and Art Gallery from October 21, 2000, to January 20, 2001. In this photograph, the contrast between the massive, powerful tank and the simple, idyllic scene of a farm boy and his cow crossing the bridge creates a striking juxtaposition. The tank's presence in the background adds an unexpected element to the otherwise peaceful moment. The image offers a unique insight into the daily life of soldiers during the Kosovo conflict, as well as the resilience and adaptability of the local population. Sgt. Miles' ability to capture these moments with such sensitivity and detail is a testament to his skill as a photographer and his commitment to documenting the experiences of those serving in the military.
