EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of respite for the brave AFS Bromley Divisional Station firefighters during the early days of the Second World War. Taken at Ravensbourne School in Bromley, Kent, in 1939, the image shows the firefighters gathered around tables, enjoying their lunch or a much-needed drink. The 1930s, a decade marked by increasing tension and uncertainty leading up to the outbreak of war, saw the expansion of the Auxiliary Fire Service (AFS) in response to the threat of air raids. These volunteers played a crucial role in supporting the London Fire Brigade (LFB) during the war, manning fire stations and fighting fires in their local communities. The simple act of sharing a meal together, away from the dangers and chaos of the frontline, underscores the camaraderie and resilience of these dedicated men. The photograph offers a poignant reminder of the human side of the war effort and the everyday experiences of those who served in the AFS during this pivotal period in history.
