EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a dramatic scene near St Andrews Church in Newcastle during the 1930s. The blazing fire, intentionally set as part of a pre-Second World War exercise, served as a crucial test for the dedicated auxiliary firemen on duty. Taken on an early Sunday morning, May 8th, 1939, this image showcases the preparations and build-up of defenses that took place before the outbreak of war. In this snapshot from history, we witness a small group of brave firefighters battling against destruction and chaos. Their commitment to protecting their community is evident as they confront the fierce flames engulfing nearby buildings. This powerful display highlights not only their bravery but also sheds light on the immense challenges faced by those serving on the home front during wartime. As tensions escalated across Europe during this era, such exercises played an essential role in honing firefighting skills and ensuring preparedness for potential attacks. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of how ordinary individuals were thrust into extraordinary circumstances during World War Two. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints and credited to NCJ (not affiliated with any specific company), this historical artifact offers us a glimpse into an important chapter in our collective past. It stands as a testament to both human resilience and sacrifice while serving as a visual representation of the dedication exhibited by those who worked tirelessly to protect their communities amidst uncertainty and impending conflict.
