Description: These historic wool socks are a poignant reminder of the efforts made on the home front during World War II to support prisoners of war. Handcrafted by the British Red Cross, these socks were part of care parcels sent to British servicemen held in POW camps. Each pair was meticulously knitted by volunteers, embodying the solidarity and compassion of those on the home front. The durable wool provided much-needed warmth and comfort to soldiers in captivity, offering a small but vital connection to home. These socks not only highlight the significant role of the British Red Cross during the war but also serve as a tribute to the resilience and dedication of the volunteers who contributed to the war effort through such heartfelt means. An authentic piece of history, these socks are a testament to the power of kindness and collective action in times of adversity.
