EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the heart of London during World War II. The image captures a powerful demonstration by the heroic members of The London Fire Brigade and the Auxiliary Fire Service at the iconic Serpentine in central London. It is February 21st, 1941, a time when Britain was facing relentless bombings from enemy forces during the Blitz. Amidst the chaos and destruction that engulfed their city, these brave firemen showcase their unwavering dedication to protecting lives and property. Their water pumps stand tall as symbols of hope amidst adversity. Standing alongside them is none other than Clement Attlee, Leader of the Labour Party and Lord Privy Seal – a testament to their importance in safeguarding our nation's capital. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of life on the home front during wartime. It encapsulates not only the strength and resilience of those who served but also highlights how politics played an integral role in supporting emergency services like never before. George Greenwell's masterful capture freezes this moment in time forever, allowing us to reflect on an era defined by conflict yet marked by unity. As we gaze upon this historical artifact today, let us remember those who risked everything for our safety and honor their legacy with gratitude.
