EDITORS COMMENTS
Mrs Baliol Scott, a renowned woman rifle shot and prominent member of the Byfleet Ladies Rifle Range, instructs a young boy scout in the art of shooting during World War I. The Byfleet Ladies Rifle Range, located in Surrey, England, played a significant role in providing gun training and free ammunition to men who wished to learn the essential skill of shooting. The image captures a moment of focused determination as the boy scout takes aim at his target under the watchful eye of Mrs Scott. Dressed in a long skirt and blouse, Mrs Scott embodies the unexpected yet crucial contribution of women in military training during this time. The year was 1914, and the Great War had recently begun. Women like Mrs Scott stepped up to support the war effort in various ways, including teaching shooting skills to men who would soon be called to the front lines. This photograph is a testament to the resilience, adaptability, and resourcefulness of the community during a time of great upheaval. The Byfleet Ladies Rifle Range served as a vital training ground for young men, instilling in them the necessary skills and confidence to face the challenges of the battlefield.
