EDITORS COMMENTS
Stepping back in time to Perranporth Railway Station, Cornwall, circa 1916. This print captures a group of determined women standing proudly on the station platform, their luggage neatly arranged beside them. What immediately catches the eye is the distinctive triangular badge adorning each woman's attire – an 'On War Service' badge issued by the Ministry of Munitions during World War I. In this poignant snapshot, we witness these brave ladies who have answered their nation's call for urgent war work. Their commitment and dedication shine through as they prepare to board the train that will transport them to their respective duties. The significance of this moment cannot be overstated; it symbolizes not only their personal sacrifice but also represents countless other women who played invaluable roles during those tumultuous times. Photographer Arthur William Jordan has masterfully captured both the solemnity and strength emanating from these remarkable individuals. Through his lens, we are transported back in time and offered a glimpse into a pivotal era when women stepped forward to fill vital positions traditionally held by men. This evocative image serves as a testament to resilience and unity amidst adversity—a reminder of how ordinary people can rise above challenges when called upon. As we reflect on this piece of history preserved at Royal Cornwall Museum, let us honor these unsung heroes whose contributions helped shape our world today.
