EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the Second World War, specifically to the formation of the Corps of Electrical and Mechanical Engineers in the British Army. The image showcases a crucial moment at the Western Command depot on 2nd September 1942. Soldiers, both military personnel and civilians, are seen working together diligently to repair a massive 25-pounder piece. The significance of this snapshot lies not only in its historical context but also in its representation of teamwork and resilience during times of conflict. As soldiers carefully lift the repaired artillery into position, their determination is palpable. It serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos and destruction, unity can prevail. The Corps of Electrical and Mechanical Engineers played an instrumental role during World War II by ensuring that essential machinery was operational for combat operations. This particular photograph highlights their expertise in motors and repairs—a testament to their invaluable contribution on the battlefield. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints, this remarkable image transports viewers back to an era defined by sacrifice and bravery. It encapsulates not only a pivotal moment in British military history but also pays tribute to all those who served selflessly during one of humanity's darkest periods—the Second World War.
