LCC-LFB Fire display at Brigade HQ Southwark
The London Fire Brigade encouraged, for very many years, a good public image by opening its doors to the public to special fire brigade displays. On Saturday afternoons, during the summer months, it was a regular feature to see displays at the Southwark Headquarters. As the picture shows it drew large, and frequently a boater-hatted, crowds. A motorised fire engine works two firefighting jets, while a turntable ladder is fully extended to the top of the drill tower. Where there was space to stand and watch the public took every opportunity to do so.

Blitz in London -- training in use of breathing apparatus
Blitz in London -- regular London firefighters being trained in the use of breathing apparatus (BA) in the yard of Brigade headquarters, Lambeth. They are wearing Proto Mark IV oxygen re-breather sets, with a nominal duration of about one hour. Although later replaced by the Mark V, this type of BA set remained in regular use in the London Fire Brigade well into the mid 1970s when they were replaced by compressed-air BA sets. The men are being taught, with the use of blindfolds, how to move in smoke and darkness, finding their way around by touch.

LFCDA-LFB Recruits undergoing basic training
Located at Southwark Bridge Road, SE1, the London Fire Brigade Training School is responsible for providing basic training to all its recruit firefighters. This intensive course delivers all aspects of the skills and knowledge for a firefighter to progress to become a probationer and start work at a fire station. The second part of the recruit course consolidates individual elements and the picture shows them combining breathing apparatus, ladder work and hose drills in a simulated fire exercise.
