EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph is a captivating glimpse into the daily life of the Auxiliary Territorial Service (ATS) during the build-up to World War II, as documented in an album compiled by Chief Commander Blanche Barton. The album contains 73 photographs, with a significant portion dedicated to the training and activities at Malvern Camp in 1938 and 1939. The images from Malvern Camp show a diverse range of scenes, from groups of women in uniform, inspections, and the erection of tents, to portraits, marching drills, pay days, lectures, first aid training, gas mask drills, and kit inspections. These photographs offer a unique insight into the rigorous training regime that the ATS underwent in preparation for their role in the war effort. The second half of the album is devoted to the ATS's experiences in Lancaster in 1939. These photographs capture moments of both official and personal significance, including inspections by Queen Elizabeth and the Princess Royal, the issuing of kit, instruction in cookery, pay days, and a wedding. The album also includes a photograph of the ATS on parade in Colwyn Bay, marking their departure for active service in 1945. This album provides a valuable record of the experiences of the ATS during the early stages of World War II, offering a fascinating glimpse into the daily life and training of these courageous women who played a crucial role in the war effort.
