The image showcases a colossal pile of coal at a colliery, serving as a powerful reminder of the vital role that energy and fuel played during this tumultuous period. As we gaze upon this immense heap, we are transported to an era when coal mining was not just an industry but a lifeline for nations at war. The sheer magnitude of the pile is awe-inspiring, symbolizing the tireless efforts made by miners who toiled underground to extract this precious resource.
