EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the members of the NFS (National Fire Service) London Region Fire Force 35 Control Unit, assembled at the Regional Headquarters in Lambeth during World War II. The London Fire Brigade's NFS had five Fire Force areas in the region, each with its unique local headquarters and dedicated control units. Fire Force No. 35, based at Stormont Road in Highgate, is represented here with its essential staff and a dispatch rider. During the 1940s, the London Fire Brigade played a crucial role in protecting the city from the devastating effects of the Blitz. The NFS, formed in 1941, was an auxiliary organization that supplemented the regular fire brigade's resources. Fire Force Control Units were responsible for coordinating the response to fires and emergencies, managing resources, and dispatching fire appliances and personnel. The image showcases the team's determination and focus as they prepare for their duties. The control room, filled with maps, charts, and communication equipment, serves as the nerve center for the Fire Force's operations. The dispatch rider, dressed in protective gear, stands ready to deliver messages and instructions to the various units under their command. As the war raged on, the NFS and the London Fire Brigade worked tirelessly to keep the city safe. This photograph is a testament to their unwavering commitment and the vital role they played in London's wartime history.
