EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph depicts a team of London Fire Brigade (LFB) firefighters, proudly posing after participating in the Fishmongers Cup Whaler Race on the River Thames on September 27, 1958. The six-man crew, dressed in their vest and shorts uniforms, are identified as Sub Officer A Stollery (stroke), Fireman O Bowen (bow oar), Station Officer L Butchers (cox), Fireman R Head (mid oar), Fireman O Cooper (second stroke), and Fireman H Wright (second bow). The whaler race, a popular recreational activity and team-building event for the fire brigade, took place on the iconic River Thames. The crew members, with their determined expressions and focused gaze, exude a sense of camaraderie, athleticism, and enjoyment. The backdrop of the London skyline, with the Massey Shaw Bridge and buildings in the distance, adds to the historical context of the image. This photograph is a testament to the importance of physical fitness, teamwork, and fun in the daily lives of these brave firefighters during the 1950s.
