An RAF flight sergeant, identified by the RAF eagle shoulder badge and three chevrons beneath a crown, fastens the gauntlet of a fireman dressed in a hooded crash rescue suit with a rectangular window visor; the fireman holds a fire-hose branch pipe. Behind them stand a military truck numbered 3598 and a man in a steel helmet, with hose lying on the grass. There is no caption or credit, and the scan is too compressed to tell whether the source is a photographic print or a halftone reproduction.
