The latest issue of the Victorian Military Society's SOTQ (Soldiers of the Queen) was delivered last Friday, and I spent a very interesting time reading it over the weekend.
The articles included in this issue are:
- La Trobe, Redcoats and Mounted Police, 1839-1846 by Dr Andrew Kisby
- The Diehards at Detling: Military Odyssey 2025 by Tim Rose
- Kolhapur 1844 by David Howell
- Obituary: Professor John Laband (1947-2025) by Ian Knight
- Officers of the Victorian Military Society
- Myth and Reality: Military Art in the Age of Queen Victoria Tuesday 1st July 2025 to Sunday 1st November 2026 at the National Army Museum (In my last review, I used the wrong end date for this exhibition! Mea culpa!)
Another excellent collection of articles ... as usual! I must admit that if I had taken up re-enactment, I’d have liked to have joined the ranks of the Diehards … but I am now of an age when the only military group I could honestly re-enact would have to be the Chelsea Pensioners!
The annual cost of membership of the Victorian Military Society is:
- UK: £30.00
- Overseas: £40.00 [except for Australia, New Zealand, and Singapore: £43.00])
My opinion still remains that this magazine is well worth the cost of the annual subscription.
