As we delve into this snapshot, we are transported to a time when communication played an indispensable role in military operations. In this photograph, young men can be seen huddled around telegraph machines, their focused expressions revealing the seriousness of their task. With headphones on and fingers poised over keys, they diligently practice sending coded messages using Morse code. The significance of this training becomes apparent when considering the crucial role it played during wartime.
