EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the RNAS (Royal Naval Air Service) standard Rolls Royce armoured car, a vital asset during the First World War, stationed at Wormwood Scrubs in 1915. The Rolls Royce, a symbol of luxury and sophistication in peacetime, was repurposed for military use, transforming into an armoured transport vehicle for the British armed forces. The RNAS, an integral part of the British military during the First World War, utilized these vehicles for various roles, including reconnaissance, transport, and even as mobile command centres. The Rolls Royce armoured cars, with their robust design and reliable engines, proved to be an invaluable addition to the RNAS fleet. The photograph, taken in 1915, depicts the vehicle parked in a grassy area, surrounded by trees and barbed wire fencing. The car's armoured body and gun mount are clearly visible, demonstrating the vehicle's military capabilities. The presence of soldiers in the background, dressed in uniform and carrying weapons, underscores the war-time setting. The RNAS Rolls Royce armoured cars were a testament to the ingenuity and adaptability of the British military during the First World War. They represented a fusion of technology and military strategy, enabling the RNAS to effectively carry out its missions on the battlefield. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a poignant reminder of the role these vehicles played in the Great War.
