EDITORS COMMENTS
"This evocative photograph captures the Senior Fire Officers of the NFS (National Fire Service, London Region) Fire Force No. 34, gathered around their staff car at Area HQ, Haven Court Green, Haven Green, Ealing, West London, in 1943. During World War II, the London Fire Brigade was supported by the NFS, a volunteer organization that supplemented the brigade's resources. The officers, dressed in their uniforms, are seen examining the vehicle, likely discussing strategies or plans. The staff car, a symbol of their authority and mobility, is adorned with the Fire Force 34 insignia. The image transports us back to the wartime era, a time of unity and resilience in the face of adversity. The 1940s were a pivotal decade for the London Fire Brigade, as they faced the challenges of fighting fires amidst the destruction caused by the Blitz. The brigade's fleet of vehicles, including this staff car, played a crucial role in their response efforts. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the bravery and dedication of the fire officers during the war. It also highlights the importance of transportation in enabling the brigade to effectively respond to emergencies. The image is a valuable historical document, offering insights into the wartime operations of the London Fire Brigade and the NFS." Mary Evans Picture Library / London Fire Brigade, 1943.
