EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of unity and camaraderie between Britain and the United States during a pivotal moment in World War I history. The image, taken in the seaside town of Blackpool in 1917, shows a large procession of munition workers making their way towards the Town Hall from Central Station, waving both the Stars and Stripes and Union Jacks. The scene represents the warm welcome given to the American allies as they joined the war effort following the United States' declaration of war on Germany on April 2, 1917, due to unrestricted submarine warfare. The women in the procession, dressed in their work clothes and carrying flags, embody the patriotic fervor and determination of the time. This historical photograph is a poignant reminder of the international alliance that played a crucial role in the outcome of the First World War.
