EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable moment in history - the Auxiliary Territorial Service Parade through Horsham, back in December 1940. A group of courageous women proudly march through the streets, their uniforms immaculate and their spirits high. As they pass by, army vehicles follow closely behind, showcasing the strength and unity of these dedicated servicewomen. The atmosphere is electric as onlookers line the sidewalks to witness this awe-inspiring display of military prowess. The women's determination is palpable, reflecting their unwavering commitment to serve their country during a time of great turmoil. Their presence commands attention and admiration from all who bear witness to this extraordinary spectacle. Amidst the sea of uniformed soldiers stands an interesting contrast - contemporary cars dotting the background. These modern vehicles serve as a reminder that life continues amidst war; that even in times of conflict, society adapts and moves forward. Preserved within the Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office, this photograph serves as a poignant testament to the bravery and resilience displayed by these remarkable women during World War II. It encapsulates not only a pivotal moment in history but also pays homage to those who selflessly served their nation with honor
