EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the determination and resilience of two young Land Girls as they saw logs in the early 1940s. Part of the Women's Land Army, these women played a crucial role in the war effort by working on farms and in forestry to help maintain food production and supply the military with timber. Dressed in practical and utilitarian clothing, including trousers, which was still considered unconventional for women at the time, they wield manual saws with focus and skill. The large, felled trees behind them testify to the physical labor involved in their daily tasks. The Women's Land Army was formed in response to the manpower shortage during World War Two, with over 80,000 women serving by 1943. Their contributions were vital to the war effort, and they performed a range of duties, from ploughing and planting to harvesting, milking cows, and even driving tractors. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the important role these women played in the war effort, and the challenges they faced in breaking gender norms and working in traditionally male-dominated industries. The image also serves as a testament to their courage, resourcefulness, and the spirit of community and cooperation that characterized the wartime era.
