There can be little doubt that Elizabeth Drabble was an extremely committed member of the Salvation Army. Her embroidered jersey proclaims her lifelong commitment to God, a large Salvation Army badge is fastened to the neck of her jumper and she shows us a copy of the Salvationists' newspaper The War Cry.
As staff captain at training homes in Clapton, Elizabeth would have been involved in preparing hundreds of recruits for officer roles within the Salvation Army. These officers would be commissioned to preach and serve in all parts of the world.
