EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history during the tumultuous years of World War Two. The image showcases a group of diligent workmen diligently removing iron railings, symbolizing the sacrifices made on the home front to support the war effort. Taken between 1939 and 1945 in Bognor Regis, this photograph is part of the esteemed L Alouette Collection housed at West Sussex Record Office. The scene depicted here resonates with resilience and unity as these laborers contribute their efforts towards repurposing materials for wartime purposes. Their dedication reflects the spirit of countless individuals who selflessly worked behind-the-scenes to aid their country during this global conflict. Frank Lalouette, an individual closely associated with this collection, has left an indelible mark through his documentation of life during World War Two. His keen eye for detail allows us to glimpse into a time when ordinary citizens became unsung heroes. It is important to note that this photo should not be used commercially without proper authorization from West Sussex County Council. However, its historical significance cannot be understated as it reminds us of the immense challenges faced by communities across Britain during those trying times.
