EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to June 1945, during the height of World War II. The image showcases the HMS White Bear, a Hydrographic survey vessel serving with the East Indies Fleet. Acting as headquarters for smaller vessels, this ship plays a crucial role in charting unchartered or long-neglected areas. In this particular scene, Sergeant G Boast of Taunton, Somerset (Royal Marines) is seen inspecting a freshly printed chart that has just come off the large modern press. His focused expression reveals the importance of these charts for Allied shipping operations. Standing beside him are Corporal J. E. Winterbourn from Edgware, Middlesex and Sergeant WH Baldwin from Nottingham. The HMS White Bear serves as not only a floating base but also an advanced printing unit. It houses a printing plant where vital data obtained by survey ships is transformed into essential charts for navigation purposes. This innovative approach ensures that accurate information reaches Allied forces promptly. The photograph captures the dedication and professionalism of these servicemen who played an integral role in supporting naval operations during wartime. It serves as a reminder of their tireless efforts behind the scenes to ensure safe passage through treacherous waters. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints, this snapshot provides us with a glimpse into history—a testament to human ingenuity and adaptability even amidst conflict-ridden times like World War II.
