EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the crew of Woolwich Fire Station, located on Sunbury Street in SE London, on parade in the late 1930s. The impending threat of World War 2 casts a shadow over the scene, with an Auxiliary Fire Service (AFS) fire engine standing proudly next to the London Fire Brigade (LFB) pump escape. The LFB firemen, dressed in their traditional uniforms and helmets, turn out in formation on the station forecourt, ready for action. The AFS engine, with its distinctive red cross emblem, signifies the importance of community-based firefighting efforts during a time when the regular LFB was stretched thin. The combination of the LFB and AFS engines represents the collaborative spirit and preparation taking place in the pre-war years. The image offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the dedication and readiness of the firefighters as they stood guard over their community, poised to respond to any emergency that may come their way.
