EDITORS COMMENTS
Training for what might become an attack on the city of Liverpool. January 1937. In this photo print, captured on the 12th of January 1937, we are transported back to a time of uncertainty and preparation. The image showcases a group of individuals diligently training in anticipation of potential attacks on their beloved city. Little did they know that just two years later, during World War Two, Liverpool would endure the devastating onslaught by the German Luftwaffe known as The Liverpool Blitz. As conflict loomed over Europe in the forties, these brave men and women took precautionary measures to protect their home front. Clad in gas masks and armed with determination, they formed part of the Home Guard - ordinary citizens turned defenders against possible invasion. This poignant snapshot serves as a reminder of the resilience displayed by communities during times of war. It symbolizes both their commitment to safeguarding their city and their unwavering spirit amidst adversity. The photograph is a testament to history's lessons learned; it reminds us how crucial preparedness was during those tumultuous years leading up to World War Two. Today, it stands as a powerful memento from an era when ordinary people became heroes in defense of our freedom. Captured by Staff and Marsh, this evocative print transports us back through time while honoring those who stood strong during one of humanity's darkest chapters.
