Ambulance Bugle Bugler Hedgehog Johns Mascot Prewar Shield
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative group photograph captures the spirit of camaraderie and dedication among members of the St. John Ambulance Brigade in the early 1900s. Dressed in their distinctive uniforms adorned with the iconic red cross and St. John's shield, these brave individuals prepared themselves to provide aid and assistance during emergencies and medical crises. The presence of the hedgehog mascot, a beloved symbol of the organization, adds a playful touch to the otherwise serious scene. The bugler in the foreground, poised with his instrument at the ready, suggests that the group was about to embark on a training exercise or perhaps respond to an emergency call. The use of bugles was a common method of communication for the St. John Ambulance Brigade, allowing them to quickly assemble and mobilize in times of need. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the history of this esteemed organization and the important role it played in the community during the pre-war era. The St. John Ambulance Brigade, founded in 1877, has a rich and storied history, with a mission to save lives and alleviate suffering through the provision of first aid training and emergency medical services. This group photograph serves as a testament to the dedication and selflessness of its members, who put their lives on hold to help those in need.
