EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the NFS (London Region No 5) Towing Unit in uniform grey livery, proudly displayed in the Regional Fire Service Headquarters station drill yard during the Second World War. The NFS, or National Fire Service, was formed in 1938 as a unified firefighting service for Great Britain in response to the impending threat of war. The London Region No 5 Towing Unit was one of many essential units established to support the war effort. The tow truck in the image, with its powerful winch and sturdy trailer attached, was a vital asset for the NFS during this period. Its grey livery, a common color for military and emergency vehicles of the time, underscores the wartime setting. The unit's home base, the Regional Fire Service Headquarters, served as a hub for coordinating firefighting efforts and providing essential resources to various brigades throughout London. The drill yard, filled with fire engines, trucks, and other equipment, is a testament to the preparedness and dedication of the NFS during the 1940s. The image transports us back to a time when the London Fire Brigade and other emergency services were at the forefront of the war effort, ensuring the safety and security of the city and its people. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the crucial role that firefighting units, like the NFS Towing Unit, played during the wartime years.
