EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a group of brave and determined women, proudly posing next to their Quad tractors during World War II. The year is 1939, and these women, members of the Auxiliary Territorial Service (ATS), have taken on roles traditionally held by men in the farming industry. With the outbreak of war, the need for labor in agriculture became urgent, and women were called upon to fill the gap. Quad tractors, with their versatility and power, were essential tools for farmers during this period. In the image, the women drivers, dressed in their ATS uniforms, exude confidence as they stand next to their Quad tractors, their hands on the cabs. The tractors, with their large wheels and powerful engines, dominate the scene, a testament to the women's ability to handle heavy machinery. The photograph is one of seven in a collection relating to the trades in which ATS personnel were employed during the war years. It is a poignant reminder of the vital role women played in keeping the country's agriculture industry running during a time of great upheaval and hardship. These women, like many others, proved that they were more than capable of taking on new challenges and responsibilities, breaking down gender stereotypes and paving the way for future generations. The exact location and names of the women in the photograph are unknown, but their determination and resilience are evident in this powerful image. The photograph, taken in 1939, is a testament to the important contributions made by women during World War II and the impact they had on the agricultural industry.
