EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a group of brave and determined Women Volunteer Reserve (WVR) members receiving engine instruction for driving Royal Mail trucks during World War I, in November 1916. The image offers a fascinating glimpse into the remarkable role women played in the British war effort, as they took on jobs traditionally held by men who were away at the front. The Women's Volunteer Reserve was established in 1914 to provide support to the military by performing various non-combat roles. However, as the war progressed and the demand for labor increased, women were given more responsibilities, including driving mail trucks for the Post Office. This was a significant development, as it marked the first time women were employed as postal workers in the UK. The women in the photograph are intently focused on their instructors, absorbing every detail as they prepare to take the wheel and deliver mail across the country. Their determination and dedication are palpable, as they donned their caps and goggles, ready to face the challenges of wartime driving. This historical photograph is a testament to the resilience and adaptability of the women who stepped up to the plate during World War I. Their contributions to the war effort, including driving Royal Mail trucks, helped to keep the country connected during a time of great upheaval. Today, their legacy continues to inspire us, as we celebrate the important role women have played – and continue to play – in shaping history.
