EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Physical & Recreational Training Instructor, (2nd Class), 1937" takes us back to a significant era in British naval history. The image is part of the Churchmans Cigarette Series, The Navy At Work, created by WA & AC Churchman in the 1930s. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see a group of male sailors lined up on deck awaiting their physical training session. Standing tall and dressed in their navy uniforms, they are under the guidance of a Physical & Recreational Training Instructor. This dedicated instructor plays an essential role in maintaining the fitness and well-being of these seamen during their service. The photograph captures a moment filled with anticipation as the men prepare for exercise using various equipment such as box horses. Upside down or right side up, they demonstrate balance and strength while receiving assistance from their instructor. The image not only showcases the importance placed on physical education within the navy but also provides insight into life onboard ships during wartime Britain. It serves as a reminder of the dedication and professionalism displayed by these sailors who were ready to defend their country at any given moment. As we gaze upon this monochrome portrait from nearly a century ago, it evokes feelings of admiration for those who served and highlights how physical training played an integral role in shaping both body and mind within this profession.
