In this print titled "The Army takes over the filling of petrol tankers and the distribution of supplies of fuel in the capital following the strike by tanker drivers" we are transported back to October 1953. The image captures a crucial moment during an industrial dispute that had brought the city to its knees. Amidst a backdrop of chaos and uncertainty, military personnel step up to ensure that essential supplies reach their destinations. A convoy of trucks, lorries, and tankers stands ready for action, symbolizing both resilience and determination in times of crisis. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its historical context but also in its portrayal of unity between emergency services and armed forces.
