EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library captures a fascinating glimpse into the daily life of Royal Naval ratings in 1939. The image showcases a long line of sailors forming an orderly queue on deck to receive their daily issue of Grog - a traditional mixture of rum and water that was commonly consumed by sailors at sea.
The scene is steeped in history, offering viewers a rare insight into the rituals and routines aboard naval ships during this time period. The sight of these uniformed men patiently waiting for their allowance of Grog evokes a sense of camaraderie and tradition that has long been associated with naval life.
As we gaze upon this snapshot from the past, we are transported back to a time when the ocean was both friend and foe to those who sailed its waters. The image serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by these brave sailors, who relied on such simple pleasures like Grog to help them endure the challenges they faced each day.
Overall, this print is not just a visual representation of naval history, but also a poignant reminder of the resilience and strength exhibited by those who served in the Royal Navy during this era. It is truly a testament to the enduring spirit of these remarkable individuals.
