EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the chaos and turmoil of the 1940s, during the heart of World War II, a moment of tranquility unfolds as Jackie, a fictional character from a beloved storybook, serves tea to weary servicemen. Jackie is a dedicated member of the Emergency Mobile Canteen Corps, a group of volunteers who provided essential comforts and sustenance to soldiers on the front lines. In this illustration, Jackie is shown in a simple yet practical uniform, her apron adorned with the insignia of the Emergency Mobile Canteen Corps. She offers a steaming cup of tea to a group of servicemen, their faces etched with the fatigue and stress of their duties. The aroma of the tea wafts through the air, a small yet meaningful gesture of comfort and solidarity. The scene is set against the backdrop of a barrage balloon, its bright colors and bulbous shape a stark contrast to the somber tones of the war-torn landscape. The balloon, erected nearby, serves as a reminder of the ongoing conflict, but also as a symbol of hope and resilience. Children's eyes may have gazed upon this illustration during a time when the world was at war, finding solace in the story of Jackie and the important work she did. This image captures the spirit of the Emergency Mobile Canteen Corps and the vital role they played in providing comfort and support to soldiers during the 2nd World War.
