EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from the 1930s, a brave team of firefighters from the London Fire Brigade (LFB) can be seen making their way into the smoky hold of the SS Leopard, located at the Port of London. The fire had broken out deep within the vessel's cargo hold, and the first order of business was to identify the exact location of the blaze amidst the stacked general cargo. Dressed in Proto one-hour oxygen breathing apparatus sets, the firefighters were prepared for the dangerous conditions they were about to face. The use of these advanced breathing apparatuses allowed them to work in the smoke-filled environment for an extended period, increasing their chances of successfully extinguishing the fire. The fireboat, a vital asset of the London Fire Brigade, is seen in the background, ready to provide assistance if needed. The fire crew's quick response and expert handling of the situation were crucial in preventing the fire from spreading and causing further damage to the ship or endangering other vessels in the port. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the heroic efforts of the London Fire Brigade during a time when maritime transportation played a significant role in the city's economy. The determination and skill of these firefighters serve as a reminder of the essential role they play in protecting lives and property in their communities.
