March 1948 - A Glimpse into the ATS OCTU at Windsor
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to March 1948, where quite a large number of girls in the Auxiliary Territorial Service (ATS) are undergoing training at the ATS Officer Cadet Training Unit (OCTU) located within the prestigious Imperial service college in Windsor. Led by their esteemed chief commander Lady Bowyer Smith, these determined cadets gather around as one of their fellow trainees attempts an impressive leap frog maneuver. Two cadets sprint alongside her, firmly gripping her arms while she gracefully jumps over a makeshift barrier created by another comrade. The camaraderie and teamwork displayed is truly inspiring. Amidst this energetic scene, Corporal Morrow PTI stands tall in his white shirt at the back, diligently observing and ensuring that discipline is maintained throughout the class. His watchful eye reflects his commitment to nurturing these young women into skilled and capable members of the ATS. This photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also represents an era when women were breaking barriers and proving themselves on equal footing with men. It serves as a testament to their resilience and determination during a pivotal period in history. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from over seven decades ago, it reminds us of the strength and spirit embodied by those who paved the way for future generations of empowered women serving their country with pride.
