Regtl Tailor - Jack Blight: A Portrait of a Military Tailor at Work during World War Two This evocative photograph captures Jack Blight, a regimental tailor, in the midst of his craft, meticulously stitching uniforms for the soldiers of the 3rd/4th County of London Yeomanry (Sharpshooters) during the early years of World War Two. The image, taken from a private photograph album compiled by Major Wilfred Herbert James Sale, MC, offers a rare glimpse into the daily life of a military tailor during this period. The photograph was taken in 1940, and the setting is a makeshift tailor shop, likely situated in a military camp or base. The room is filled with the tools of the trade: a sewing machine, piles of fabric, and various notions. The walls are adorned with pin-ups, adding a touch of home and levity to the otherwise austere environment. Jack Blight's expression is focused and determined, his eyes fixed on the task at hand. His posture is erect, and his hands move with the precision and dexterity of a master craftsman. The photograph not only illustrates the importance of tailors in the military, but also the resilience and adaptability of the men and women who served during this time. The photograph is part of a collection of 620 images compiled by Major Sale between 1940 and 1941. The images provide a unique and personal perspective on the war, offering insights into the daily lives of soldiers, their training, and their experiences on the front lines. This photograph, in particular, serves as a poignant reminder of the unsung heroes who ensured that the soldiers of the 3rd/4th County of London Yeomanry were well-equipped and well-dressed, both on and off the battlefield.
