The Foreign Secretary, Mr Anthony Eden opened the Anglo-U. S. A
The Foreign Secretary, Mr Anthony Eden opened the Anglo-U.S.A. and Allied services Club on Castle Hill, Cambridge. In 1951 the city council was approached by the Womens Voluntary Service with the object of providing the site for the club. In the past year much work had been done by the W.V.S. together with valuable assistance of the U.S. Air Force and the Air Ministry. The club will be open every evening during the week and, Mr Eden said, will lure out American Service men from the attractions of their camps so they could learn what extraordinary animals the English are 1st May 1952

EDITORS COMMENTS
The Foreign Secretary, Mr Anthony Eden, inaugurates the Anglo-U. S. A. and Allied Services Club on Castle Hill, Cambridge in this print from 1952. The city council collaborated with the Women's Voluntary Service to provide a suitable location for this unique establishment. Over the past year, extensive efforts were undertaken by the W. V. S. , along with invaluable support from both the U. S. Air Force and the Air Ministry. This exclusive club aims to entice American servicemen away from their camps' allurements so they can experience firsthand the extraordinary English way of life. Open every evening throughout the week, it promises an immersive cultural exchange between British locals and visiting military personnel. The image captures Mr Eden's presence as he addresses a captivated audience during his opening speech. His words resonate with enthusiasm as he emphasizes how this club will foster stronger bonds between Britain and America through shared experiences and understanding. Set against a backdrop of post-war politics in 1950s England, this photograph symbolizes not only diplomatic relations but also showcases Cambridgeshire's pivotal role in international affairs during that era. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints, this historical snapshot serves as a testament to collaboration across borders while highlighting significant moments in Anglo-American relations.
