Girl fireguard of twelve million trees. From the top of a 55ft fire watch tower in
Girl fireguard of twelve million trees. From the top of a 55ft fire watch tower in Rendlesham Forest near Woodbridge in East Anglia, 21-year-old Miss Maude Middleditch does a daily 9.5 hours watch over millions of pine trees. With powerful binoculars and a phone by her side she keeps a look out for fires caused by enemy action, carelessness or friction. Men do the night turn and fire fighters are instantly informed of the location of an outbreak from map reference. It is a quiet and lonely life for Maude knitting but high alert over the trees of this state forest. 6th September 1943
