Celebrate the women who helped win the Second World War. With so
many of the nation's men fighting in Europe or further afield, the
Auxiliary Territorial Service (ATS), Women's Land Army (WLA),
Women's Auxiliary Air Force (WAAF) and Women's Royal Naval Service
(WRNS) were essential parts of the Home Front. From taking care of
farmland and animal husbandry to testing weapons with live
ammunition and transporting aircraft across the country, women from
all over the nation stepped up to serve King and Country. They set
a precedent for female integration into the military, with the WAAF
and WRNS continuing in some form until they were absorbed into the
main armed forces at the end of the twentieth century. The lives of
these servicewomen are presented and commemorated here through a
collection of images taken from Mirrorpix's formidable archive.
