EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph, Firefighters proudly stand before their appliance during the grand opening of the new London Fire Brigade Headquarters at 169 Union Street, London SE1. The occasion was graced by the presence of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, who toured the facility and met with staff. The parade of fire engines and appliances was a testament to the dedication and hard work of the firefighting service, showcasing the latest equipment and vehicles that would ensure the continued protection of the city. The Queen, dressed in a bright yellow reflective strip jacket, pays close attention to the firefighters and their appliance, as they return her gaze with a sense of pride and respect. The parade took place on the streets of Southwark, with the new HQ serving as a modern and functional base for the London Fire Brigade. The opening of the new headquarters marked a significant moment in the history of the service, and the firefighters were eager to showcase their capabilities and commitment to the community. The photograph captures the essence of the day, with the firefighters standing tall and proud, their helmets glinting in the sunlight, and the appliance ready for action.
