The members of one of the companies of Tacoma's auxiliary civil defense fire service posed with their engine and Tacoma Fire Chief Emory Whitaker outside of "The Florence," 414-22 Tacoma Ave. So. The photograph was taken either before or after a March 21, 1943 civil defense drill. The drill proposed that Tacoma had been bombed by enemy forces and the Florence Apartments had been destroyed.
