Many people in the UK will have grandparents or great-grandparents who served in WWII. With the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings behind us and Remembrance Sunday ahead, what better way to pay your respects than through the medium of photography? For this project, you'll need the military memorabilia associated with your relative. Or, if you're a militaria collector, you can theme the image for a particular nationality or branch of the service.
For this shot, I'm using the medals, badges and studio portrait of a woman who served in the Auxiliary Territorial Service, formed in 1938. The role of the ATS was to free up manpower for the front by giving military jobs at home being done by men to women instead. In total, some 210,308 women served with the ATS in WWII, including the late Queen Elizabeth II, with 335 losing their lives and many more being injured.
