EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant print from the George Garland Collection, we are transported back to December 1941, a time of great upheaval and uncertainty. The image captures two young boys dressed in their school uniforms, standing side by side with an air of resilience that belies their tender age. Their cap and socks perfectly complement their neatly tailored suits, showcasing the attention to detail even amidst challenging circumstances. These boys are evacuees, part of a generation uprooted from their homes during World War II for safety reasons. With war raging across Europe, families made difficult decisions to send their children away from potential danger zones. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made during those tumultuous times. The West Sussex Record Office has preserved this precious moment in history within its extensive archives. The image not only documents the clothing styles prevalent in the 1940s but also encapsulates the spirit and determination displayed by countless children who found themselves thrust into unfamiliar surroundings. As we reflect on this snapshot frozen in time, it is important to remember that behind every historical artifact lies a story waiting to be told. These brave young boys symbolize an entire generation affected by war but resilient enough to endure and rebuild our world anew.
