EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a truly remarkable moment in history. In the midst of World War Two, twenty courageous women gather at Dungeness lifeboat station in Kent to launch the RNLB Charles Cooper Henderson. Their husbands were away fishing when an RAF pilot found himself stranded in the treacherous waters of the English Channel. The significance of this event extends beyond just one rescue mission. The RNLB Charles Cooper Henderson was among nineteen RNLI Lifeboats that played a vital role in Operation Dynamo, famously known as the Dunkirk evacuation. From May 26th to June 4th, 1940, these brave vessels helped save countless Allied troops from the clutches of Nazi forces on the beaches and port of Dunkirk. As we gaze upon this powerful image captured on July 5th, 1940, we are reminded not only of the heroism displayed by these women but also their unwavering commitment to serving their community during wartime. This picture serves as a testament to their strength and resilience on the home front. In a time marked by chaos and uncertainty, it is heartening to witness such selflessness and determination. This photograph stands as a tribute not only to those who risked their lives for others but also to all charitable organizations involved in emergency services during times of war.
