EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph captures a moment from the Girls Naval Training Corps (GNTC) expedition in 1952, as they competed for the coveted Blue Peter Cup. The GNTC, established in 1941, was a British organization similar to the Sea Cadets for boys, providing training in seamanship, drill, and other naval skills for young girls. In this thrilling 24-hour expedition, these intrepid young women demonstrated their agility and resourcefulness by utilizing various means of transportation. Three girls are seen pedaling determinedly on their bicycles, while two others gracefully glide on roller skates. Their expressions show a mix of concentration, excitement, and sheer enjoyment as they navigate their way through the challenge. The Blue Peter Cup competition was an annual event that tested the girls' teamwork, endurance, and adaptability. Participants were encouraged to travel as far as possible within the given timeframe, using any mode of transport they could find. This unique event not only fostered a sense of camaraderie and adventure but also provided valuable life skills and experiences for the young members of the GNTC. This photograph is a testament to the spirit of determination and innovation that defined the Girls Naval Training Corps during the post-war era. It offers a humorous and lighthearted glimpse into the past, reminding us of a time when girls were encouraged to push their boundaries and explore new horizons.
