EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1947, we are transported back to a moment of excitement and new beginnings. The image showcases six young women on board the magnificent liner Stratheden, embarking on their post-war maiden voyage after its reconditioning from war service. These adventurous souls have chosen to try out life in the merchant service for the very first time, as they set sail towards Australia. Amongst them are two junior officers, Miss Margaret Searle and Miss Iris Cooper, who previously served in esteemed positions within the military. Joining them are four telephonists who hold petty officer ranks: Miss Margaret Pritchard, Miss Pat Cane, Mrs Ena Williams, and Miss Joan Poppleton. The picture captures these remarkable women standing proudly on deck in their crisp uniforms adorned with hats that symbolize their affiliation with the navy. Their expressions reflect both anticipation and determination as they embark on this extraordinary journey together. This snapshot not only encapsulates a significant moment in history but also serves as a testament to the strength and resilience of women during an era dominated by men. It is a reminder that even amidst post-war chaos, dreams can be pursued fearlessly while breaking barriers along the way. Courtesy of TopFoto. co. uk
