EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a significant era in history, capturing the essence of a young woman serving in the Land Army during World War II. Dated 6th February 1944, this portrait showcases her unwavering determination and resilience as she stands tall in her Land Army uniform and hat. The George Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office has preserved this remarkable moment for generations to come. The image not only reflects the clothing style of the 1940s but also sheds light on the vital role women played in agriculture and farming during wartime. With grace and strength, this land army girl symbolizes countless others who worked tirelessly to ensure food security amidst challenging times. Her uniform represents more than just fashion; it embodies a sense of duty, sacrifice, and patriotism that defined an entire generation. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of their contribution towards sustaining communities and supporting soldiers fighting on distant battlefields. As we admire this historical gem from West Sussex County Council's collection, let us remember those who served selflessly during these tumultuous years. Their commitment to our nation's well-being deserves our utmost respect and gratitude. May their legacy continue to inspire future generations as they face their own trials with courage and unity
