EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the Women's Motor Corps of the National League for Women's Service in May 1917, during World War I. The image shows a group of determined and patriotic women gathered at the 71st Regiment Armory in New York City, ready to serve their country in a time of need.
Dressed in their smart uniforms, these female drivers stand proudly next to their automobiles, showcasing both their fashion sense and their commitment to supporting the war effort. The black and white composition adds a timeless quality to the scene, emphasizing the historical significance of this moment.
As they prepare to hit the road and drive into action, these women represent a crucial part of America's home front during the First World War. Their role in providing transportation support for military personnel and supplies was essential to keeping operations running smoothly on the domestic front.
The Women's Motor Corps embodied strength, resilience, and dedication as they navigated through uncertain times with courage and determination. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of their contributions to history and honors their legacy as trailblazers for future generations of women in service.
