EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the arrival of A. T. S. Officers in Canada during World War II. The image showcases four remarkable women who have dedicated themselves to serving their country and contributing to the war effort. From left to right, we see J/C Elizabeth McHaughton, a highly educated officer from Edinburgh with an M. A. degree and an Education Diploma. She will undertake personnel selection duties, bringing her expertise and experience to this crucial role. Next is J/C Margaret Smith, the only messing officer in the group. With extensive knowledge in domestic science and catering, she has supervised the feeding of countless Army recruits at an Infantry Training Centre. J/C Peggy Lambert stands tall as she prepares for her trade training duties. Hailing from Totteridge, N. 20. , she specializes in motor transport (M. T. ) operations—a vital skillset during wartime logistics. Lastly, we meet J/C Marjorie Duckworth from Skipton, Yorkshire—an officer chosen for personnel selection duties alongside McHaughton. Before joining up with the A. T. S. , Duckworth served as a personnel officer at a factory and even had the opportunity to visit America. Her degree in Sociology and membership in the Institute of Labour Management make her well-equipped for this important task. These brave women exemplify courage, intelligence, and dedication as they embark on their respective roles within the A. T. S. , leaving behind civilian lives filled with diverse experiences that have prepared them for these challenging times.
