EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of community and resilience during wartime London, as members of the London Fire Brigade (LFB) band lead their contingent on a march through the streets of Lewisham, SE London, during the 1940s. The scene is set against the backdrop of World War II, with the date and location adding to the historical significance of the image. The firefighters, dressed in their uniforms and carrying their brass instruments, proudly display their musical talents as they parade through the streets. The band's presence not only adds a sense of celebration to the occasion but also serves as a morale booster for the local community, who gather to show their support. The LFB auxiliary firemen, who were volunteers, are seen marching in formation behind the band. The photograph provides a unique insight into the wartime spirit of London and the important role that music and community played in maintaining morale during challenging times. The LCC-LFB band's performance serves as a reminder of the bravery and dedication of the firefighters during the war, who put their lives on the line to protect their communities from the devastating effects of air raids and fires.
