EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of respite for a group of Voluntary Aid Detachment (VAD) nurses at a French hospital during World War I. The nurses, all members of the St. John Ambulance Association, had been serving at the front since the outbreak of war. They are seen here dressed in their distinctive uniforms, with arm brassards bearing the St. John's badge. At the center of the image, the matron, with a serious expression, reads a magazine or newspaper. Her calm demeanor provides a sense of stability and focus amidst the chaos of the war. To her right, a nurse diligently darns a sock, ensuring that her comrades are well-equipped for their duties. The VAD nurses played a crucial role in the military medical services during WWI, providing essential support to the wounded and sick soldiers. They worked under the supervision of military medical staff, often in dangerous and challenging conditions. Their dedication and selflessness were instrumental in saving countless lives and alleviating the suffering of the wounded. This photograph offers a poignant glimpse into the daily life of these brave women, who put their own safety aside to care for others during a time of great need. The image is a testament to their courage, resilience, and the vital role that women played in the medical services during the First World War.
