Description: | Two ratings of the WRNS serve behind the counter of the canteen at the Royal Marine Barracks, Chatham, Kent. One Wren takes an order from a mother and daughter, as two Marines wait their turn in the queue. The little girl is holding a large hoop and stick, which she is patiently waiting to play with when the shopping is complete. The canteen at the permanent barracks served the needs of the Marines and their families.
