EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to a significant moment in history, capturing the spirit and determination of young women serving their country during World War Two. In this snapshot from February 16th, 1945, we witness a group of Wrens – members of the Women's Royal Naval Service – gathered on the picturesque River Tees. The image showcases three brave individuals aboard a motorboat, donning their iconic uniforms proudly as they navigate through uncertain waters. These courageous women played an integral role in supporting Britain's war effort by taking up various positions within the Royal Navy. As we delve into this historical photograph, it becomes evident that these Wrens were not only fulfilling their duties but also defying societal norms at that time. Their presence on military vessels was groundbreaking; they shattered gender stereotypes and paved the way for future generations of female servicemembers. The serene river setting provides a stark contrast to the turbulent times these young women found themselves in. It serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos and conflict, there is still beauty to be found. Preserved by NCJ - Evening Gazette's Memory Lane Prints collection, this powerful image immortalizes an era when ordinary people stepped forward to do extraordinary things for their nation. It stands as a testament to courage, resilience, and unity during one of humanity
