EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the past with this image of The Gymnasium at the Royal Naval College in Dartmouth, Devon, circa 1910s. The photograph, taken from a postcard in the Mary Evans Picture Library, invites us to witness the daily routine of naval recruits as they honed their strength and agility under the watchful eyes of their trainers. The gymnasium, filled with an array of gym equipment, is a testament to the importance of health and fitness during this era. Ropes, beams, and bars are suspended from the high ceiling, ready for use in various exercises. Sailors can be seen climbing ropes, balancing on beams, and lifting weights, all part of their rigorous training programme. Gymnastics were also an essential component of their physical education, as evidenced by the juggling pins and other apparatus scattered around the room. The sailors' determination and focus are palpable as they navigate the challenges of the gym, preparing themselves for the demands of life at sea. The Royal Naval College in Dartmouth, Devon, was a prestigious institution that played a crucial role in shaping the lives of young sailors. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the daily life of these recruits, providing a fascinating insight into the physical and mental demands of naval training during the early 20th century.
