EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a significant moment in the history of the London Fire Brigade (LFB) during World War II. In the image, Clement Attlee, then Lord Privy Seal in Winston Churchill's wartime coalition government, pays a visit to the LFB headquarters at Lambeth, SE1, for an inspection tour. Accompanied by his wife, Mrs Attlee, and escorted by a principal fire officer, Attlee is seen shaking hands with London firefighters on parade in the HQ drill yard. The firefighters proudly stand at attention, their fire appliances forming a backdrop to the scene. The year is 1941, and the 40s are in full swing. The London Fire Brigade, like many other essential services, was under immense pressure during this period. The city was under constant threat from air raids, and the firefighters worked tirelessly to put out fires caused by the bombs. Attlee's visit was an expression of support and appreciation for their vital work. The image is a testament to the camaraderie between the VIP and the firefighters, despite the challenging circumstances of the time. The women firefighters, who were an integral part of the LFB, are also visible in the photograph, demonstrating the gender diversity of the service. This photograph is an essential piece of historical documentation, providing a glimpse into the wartime London Fire Brigade and the crucial role it played during World War II.
