EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative collection of personal photos, or 'poly-photos,' captures the daily life and experiences of Canadian Fire-fighters stationed in England during World War II. Known as the Corps of Canadian Fire-fighters (CCCF), these brave volunteers served overseas from 1942 to 1945, providing essential firefighting and emergency support services to the British forces and civilians on the 2nd Home Front. The men in these images, dressed in their distinctive uniforms, are seen engaging in various activities, both on and off duty. Some photos depict them training, inspecting equipment, or responding to fires, while others show them relaxing and enjoying leisure time. The images offer a unique glimpse into the camaraderie and spirit of the CCCF during their time in England. The Corps of Canadian Fire-fighters played a vital role in the war effort, as they helped to ensure the safety and security of the British people and military personnel during a time of great need. Their contributions were invaluable, and these personal photos serve as a poignant reminder of their sacrifices and dedication. These photos were taken circa 1942, during the early years of the CCCF's deployment in England. The images offer a rare and intimate look into the experiences of these Canadian volunteers during their time abroad, and serve as an important historical record of their service and contributions during World War II.
