EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photo print, published by Keith Prowse and Company Limited in London in 1939, showcases a musical cover dedicated to the British Armed Forces during World War II. The cover features three men, each representing the Army, Navy, and Air Force, smiling and posing proudly in their respective uniforms. The song, titled "The Army, The Navy and the Air Force," was written by Herman Darewski and Edward Lockton, and its words express the patriotism and unity of the British people during this tumultuous time. At the bottom of the cover, there is a text dedicating the song to the Army, Navy, and Air Force, emphasizing the importance of each branch in the defense of the nation. Among the men depicted is Sergeant Jack Aldham of the Royal Horse Artillery (RHA), who adds an authentic touch to the image, reminding us of the real-life heroes who fought valiantly during the war. As the world marks the 80th anniversary of World War II, this print serves as a poignant reminder of the unity and resilience of the British people during this historical period. The cover's cheerful and patriotic atmosphere stands in stark contrast to the harsh realities of the war, offering a glimpse into the morale-boosting efforts that helped sustain the British war effort. This image is not only a testament to the power of music and art in expressing the spirit of a nation but also a valuable historical document that sheds light on the wartime experiences of the British people.
