EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "World War Two" we are transported back to July 1942, where four remarkable women of the Women's Auxiliary Air Force (WaF) are diligently working on a Rolls Royce engine of the iconic Hurricane aircraft. These women mechanics embody strength, resilience, and determination as they contribute their skills to support the war effort on the home front. Dressed in practical overalls and workwear, they fearlessly tackle the intricate machinery with precision and expertise. Their presence in such a male-dominated field during this era is truly groundbreaking. As World War Two rages on, these women prove that gender should never be an obstacle when it comes to serving one's country. This powerful image captures not only their commitment to duty but also highlights the vital role played by women in industries traditionally dominated by men. Their contribution extends beyond just turning wrenches; they symbolize progress and equality for future generations. As we gaze upon this photograph from Memory Lane Prints' collection curated by Daily Mirror, we are reminded of the countless unsung heroes who worked tirelessly behind-the-scenes during World War Two. These extraordinary women mechanics deserve our utmost respect and admiration for their invaluable service towards securing victory amidst adversity.
