EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment of pride and honor within the London Fire Brigade during a historic visit by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II to their Headquarters in Lambeth, London, in 1977. Firefighters from various stations gather in front of their appliance, a red fire engine adorned with the number II, paying their respects to the monarch as she inspects their vehicles. The firefighters, dressed in their traditional uniforms, stand at attention, their yellow helmets glinting in the sunlight. The Queen, dressed elegantly in a bright coat and hat, listens intently to the Brigade's Chief Officer as he speaks to her. The atmosphere is filled with a sense of camaraderie and respect, as the firefighters showcase their vehicles and their dedication to their service. The parade of appliances, including other red engines and ladder vehicles, lined up behind them, adds to the grandeur of the occasion. This photograph, taken in the 1970s, is a testament to the long-standing tradition of the British monarchy's support for the emergency services and the bravery and commitment of the London Fire Brigade.
