EDITORS COMMENTS
This jolly illustration by Helen McKie captures the essence of camaraderie and morale-boosting efforts during World War II. The scene depicts a group of women from the Auxiliary Territorial Service (ATS) serving tea to a sailor, an airman, and a soldier in a canteen setting. The women, dressed in their distinctive uniforms, exude a sense of determination and pride as they attend to their duties. The servicemen, weary from the rigors of war, appear grateful for the small act of kindness and relaxation. The RAF airman and the soldier from the Army and Navy share a light-hearted moment, momentarily forgetting the harsh realities of the battlefield. The illustration, titled "Good Cheers," is a poignant reminder of the vital role women played in supporting the war effort, often in non-combat roles such as canteen workers and nurses. Helen McKie's illustration not only showcases the spirit of unity and solidarity among the military personnel but also highlights the important contributions of women during this pivotal time in history.
