EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bravery and determination of the Firefighters of the NFS London Region during the wartime era, as they prepare for duty wearing their Proto Mark IV oxygen breathing apparatus sets at the Regional Headquarters station in Lambeth, SE1, in 1941. The Second World War brought unprecedented challenges to fire services, with the threat of air raids and fires caused by incendiary bombs. Firefighters like those seen here were at the forefront of the response, risking their lives to protect the city and its people. The Proto Mark IV breathing apparatus, with its distinctive goggles and cylinders, was a vital piece of equipment for firefighters during this period. It allowed them to enter smoke-filled buildings and tackle fires in conditions that would have been otherwise impossible. The men in this photograph are seen adjusting and checking their gear, ensuring that they are fully prepared for the dangers they may face. The London Fire Brigade, which was formed in 1865, played a crucial role in the defense of London during the war. The NFS London Region was an auxiliary force, formed in 1938 to provide additional manpower and resources to the brigade. The 1940s were a time of great change for firefighting, with new technologies and techniques being developed to meet the challenges of the war. This photograph is a testament to the courage and resilience of the firefighters of that era, who put their lives on the line to protect their city and its people.
