EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the chaos and destruction of the Second World War, a beacon of hope and courage emerged in the form of Jackie, a brave and selfless member of the Emergency Mobile Canteen Corps. Circa 1940s, in this poignant illustration from the March of the Women Collection, Jackie is depicted saving the life of a British airman, as his plane lies in ruins, engulfed in flames. With unwavering determination, Jackie reaches out and pulls the dazed and injured airman to safety, her expression a mixture of concern and resolve. The children's book-style illustration captures the raw emotion and intensity of the moment, transporting us back to a time when the resilience and bravery of ordinary people shone brightly amidst the darkness of war. The Emergency Mobile Canteen Corps played a vital role during WW2, providing food, drink, and comfort to soldiers and civilians alike, often in the most challenging of circumstances. This powerful image serves as a testament to the indomitable spirit of Jackie and the countless other unsung heroes who risked their lives to make a difference during those tumultuous years.
