EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from the 1960s, London Fire Brigade firefighters from the East End demonstrate the use of mass jets during the Annual Review display at the Brigade's headquarters in Lambeth, SE1. The annual review was an essential event for showcasing the latest equipment and techniques to the public and other emergency services. Here, the firefighters are seen meticulously practising their skills with the powerful mass jets, a vital tool in their operational work. The mass jets, a significant innovation in firefighting technology, were designed to deliver large volumes of water quickly and efficiently. The firefighters are dressed in their iconic uniforms, complete with helmets, coats, and boots, ready for action. The hoses are coiled neatly on the ground, and the pumps are primed and ready to be put into action. The Annual Review was an opportunity for the London Fire Brigade to demonstrate the breadth of their operational work. From hoses and sprays to pumps and jets, the firefighters showcased their expertise in various firefighting techniques. The event was also an essential part of their training regime, allowing them to keep their skills sharp and up-to-date. This photograph captures a moment in time when the London Fire Brigade was at the forefront of firefighting innovation. The mass jets represented a significant step forward in the fight against fires, and the firefighters' dedication and professionalism are evident in their meticulous practising. The Annual Review was an essential part of the Brigade's calendar, bringing together the community, emergency services, and the firefighters themselves to celebrate the vital work of the London Fire Brigade.
