EDITORS COMMENTS
Witley Station, Surrey, England, 1941: The Move to Westbury This evocative photograph captures the bustling activity at Witley Station during the early years of World War Two. Tanks, loaded with military equipment and supplies, are seen here being prepared for transportation on a train. The scene is a testament to the massive logistical efforts required to support the British military during this critical period. Maj Wilfred Herbert James Sale, MC, of the 3rd/4th County of London Yeomanry (Sharpshooters), compiled an album of 620 photographs documenting the regiment's experiences during the war. This photograph is one of many that provide a unique insight into the daily life and operations of the military during this time. The exact date of this photograph is not known, but the caption in the index volume accompanying the album indicates that it was taken in 1941. The tanks, which appear to be of various types, were likely being moved from Witley to Westbury, a military base in Wiltshire, for deployment or training purposes. The photograph provides a snapshot of the immense logistical challenges faced by the British military during the war. It also serves as a reminder of the vital role that railways played in transporting troops and supplies to the front lines. The scene at Witley Station is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and women who served during this time, and the crucial role that the military and logistical support played in the outcome of the war.
