EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the aftermath of a devastating air raid during the Blitz in London, specifically at the AFS (Auxiliary Fire Service) substation located in Webber Street, Southwark (SE1). The image, taken in the 1940s, depicts the front of the fire station with extensive damage, as debris from the bombing covers fire appliances in the yard area. The once pristine vehicles, now damaged and unrecognizable, sit helplessly amidst the rubble. The building, a symbol of the community's resilience and service, bears the scars of the bombing raid. Firemen, in their protective gear, work tirelessly to clear the area and assess the damage. The London Fire Brigade, a beacon of hope and safety in the midst of chaos, continues its vital work despite the challenging circumstances. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the destructive power of war and the unwavering commitment of the fire service during the darkest days of the 2nd World War.
