EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures Members of the Auxiliary Fire Service diligently working on the maintenance of their Auxiliary Fire Engine during the Second World War (1939-1945). The Auxiliary Fire Service, also known as the Auxiliary Fire Brigade or the AFS, was an essential part of the British emergency services during this period. With the regular fire brigades stretched thin due to the demands of war, the Auxiliary Fire Service played a crucial role in providing additional manpower and resources to tackle fires in communities across the country. The photograph shows a group of Auxiliary Fire Service members gathered around their engine, each focused on their specific task. Some are checking the engine's various components, while others are cleaning and polishing the vehicle. The engine, a symbol of their commitment and dedication, is meticulously maintained to ensure it is always ready for action. The Second World War was a time of great hardship and sacrifice for the British people, and the Auxiliary Fire Service was no exception. These brave men and women put their lives on hold to serve their communities, often working long hours in difficult conditions. The maintenance of their engines was a critical part of their duty, ensuring that they were always prepared to respond to emergencies and keep their communities safe. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the vital role the Auxiliary Fire Service played during the Second World War and the importance of community spirit and resilience in times of crisis. It is a historical image that captures the spirit of a bygone era and pays tribute to the bravery and dedication of those who served in the Auxiliary Fire Service during this pivotal period in world history.
