EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from March 1918 showcases the remarkable Miss Slater, a brave woman who served in the British tank Britannia during World War I. The image captures her sitting proudly inside the armoured vehicle, which played a crucial role on the Flanders front. Miss Slater's direct gaze and confident posture exude strength and determination.
In 1918, the Britannia made a historic visit to New York City, where it drew crowds of onlookers at the construction site behind the Municipal Building. This snapshot in time offers a glimpse into an era marked by courage, sacrifice, and resilience.
Miss Slater later went on to marry James Bumgardner Murphy, adding another chapter to her already fascinating story. Her legacy lives on through this black-and-white photograph taken by Bain News Service, a testament to her contribution to history.
As we reflect on this image over a century later, we are reminded of the countless individuals like Miss Slater who played vital roles in shaping our world during times of conflict. Their stories deserve to be remembered and celebrated for generations to come.
