British Fifth Army at Anzio Bridhead during the Second World War
British Fifth Army at Anzio Bridhead during the Second World War.
Despite having to attend fires day and night on the bridgehead at Anzio, Italy, men of the Army Fire Service still spend a considerable amount of time at practice.
Enemy shelling of ammunition dumps and stores keeps the Fire Service active.

Hotchikiss of 18 Fire Crescent, Bannockburn, Stirlingshire. Manning the rear hose is Pte. E.D. Chillingworth of South Tottenham, London, N.15 assisted by Pte. A. Pierson of 4 Ilbert Road, South Tottenham, London, N.15.
