EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of historic significance as members of the Women's Royal Air Force (WRAF) participate in the Peace Day celebrations on 19th July 1919, marking the end of the First World War. Established in 18th March 1918, the WRAF played a vital role in the war effort, with over 25,000 women serving in various capacities, from clerical work to mechanics, drivers, and even air traffic control. The scene depicted in this image shows a group of Wrens (as the members of the WRAF were affectionately known) proudly wearing their distinctive blue uniforms, adorned with red and white stripes and brass buttons. They are seen marching in the Peace Parade, which took place in London, carrying flags and banners, their faces reflecting a sense of triumph and accomplishment. The First World War had brought about a significant shift in the role of women in society, and the WRAF was a testament to their ability to contribute to the war effort in ways previously thought impossible. The Peace Day celebrations were an opportunity for the nation to acknowledge the sacrifices made by these brave women and to welcome the return of peace. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the important role played by the Women's Royal Air Force during WWI, and the impact they had on shattering gender stereotypes and paving the way for women's participation in the military and beyond.
