EDITORS COMMENTS
This intricately engraved letter opener, dated 1916, is a poignant reminder of the rich history of the Royal Naval Air Service (RNAS) during World War I. The letter opener, an example of trench art, features a winged emblem on its face, symbolizing the aviation branch of the Royal Navy. The reverse side bears the inscription "Coxyde," a reference to the RNAS airfield located in Coxyde, Belgium, which was a significant base for British naval aviation during the war. The RNAS was established in 1914 and played a crucial role in the early years of military aviation. Its pilots and aircrew conducted reconnaissance missions, provided air support for ground forces, and engaged in aerial combat against enemy aircraft. The service was merged with the Royal Flying Corps in 1918 to form the Royal Air Force, which remains the national air force of the United Kingdom to this day. This letter opener is a testament to the bravery and innovation of the men and women who served in the RNAS during World War I. Its intricate design and historical significance make it a valuable addition to any collection of World War I memorabilia or military history artifacts. The engraving on the reverse side, "Coxyde," adds a personal touch, connecting the letter opener to a specific place and time in history. Overall, this trench art letter opener is a fascinating piece of history that tells the story of the RNAS and its role in the First World War.
