Description

Auxiliary Fireman Worth Andrews Junior (Jr.) is shown stretching out his arms and yawning as he sits up in bed. He is under the covers while his fireman uniform jacket lays on the edge of the bed. On the ground next to him are his boots. Mr. Andrews Junior (Jr.) is wearing a thin tank-top and a fireman's helmet. He tested a fire hall bed in preparation for the all-night duty the Auxiliary fire department (AFD) volunteers will take on right away, so a man will be on hand constantly to operate the air raid alarm system at all fire halls. Published in Fort Worth Star-Telegram morning edition, November 3, 1942.
