EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment an Auxiliary Fireman of the London Fire Brigade (AFS) takes his leave, donning his walking out uniform during World War II. The early 1940s image showcases the fireman's dedication and commitment to his duty, as he proudly wears the distinctive uniform that has become synonymous with the heroic efforts of the London Fire Brigade during wartime. The Auxiliary Fire Service (AFS) was formed in 1938 to supplement the regular fire brigade in the event of a large-scale emergency. These brave volunteers were issued uniforms that included a tin helmet, axe, and pouch, ensuring they were well-equipped to respond to fires and other emergencies. The fireman in this photograph exudes a sense of determination and readiness, his uniform meticulously pressed and adorned with various badges and insignia. The image is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the AFS during the war, as they worked tirelessly to protect their communities from the devastating effects of bombing raids and other threats. This photograph, from the extensive collection of the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a unique glimpse into the history of the London Fire Brigade during the 1940s. It is a testament to the bravery and resilience of the men and women who served in the AFS, and a reminder of the important role they played in the defense of London during World War II.
