Wrens Train For New Job: Training For Ship Mechanics Of The Women's Royal Naval Service, England, UK, 1943, Sparks fly as women of the WRNS learn to use oxy-acetylene burners in the welding shop of a Government Training Centre (probably Slough), as part of their training to become Ship Mechanics (LC). Supervised by their instructor, they are learning to control the angle of the burner and correct the angle of the wire as they build up T-section pieces, circa 1943.
