In this photo print, we are transported back to the year 1927, a time between the wars when Europe was still reeling from the aftermath of World War I. The image showcases two remarkable women who have just arrived in London, hailed as war heroines. On the left stands Mlle Leonie Van Houtte, her face emanating strength and determination. Beside her is Miss Gertrude Richardson, accompanied by her father Mr Richardson. Their arrival at Victoria station on November 24th is captured with great poignancy, symbolizing not only their physical journey but also their immense courage and resilience during times of conflict. These two women embody the spirit of bravery that characterized an entire generation. As we gaze upon this monochrome photograph, it becomes evident that these war heroines were not mere bystanders or victims; they actively participated in shaping history through their actions and sacrifices.
