Beschreibung
With millions of men away to fight in the Second World War Britain was struggling for labor. In order to replace the agricultural workers now fighting the Nazis, the Womens Land Army (originally founded in the First World War) was relaunched in June 1939 by the Ministry of Labor. The majority of the Land Girls already lived in the countryside but more than a third came from London and the industrial cities of the north of England. By the end of the war over 100,000 women of the WLA or Land Girls as they were more affectionately known, had helped feed the nation in its darkest hour.
