London Salvage Corps : ウィキペディア英語版 | London Salvage Corps
The London Salvage Corps was maintained by the fire offices of London. The corps was first formed in 1865 and began operations in March 1866. It was inspired by the Liverpool Salvage Corps which had been formed in 1842, to reduce the loss and damage caused by fires, to help mitigate the effects of fire and of fire-fighting and to salvage both premises and goods affected by fire. ==History== The London Corps was founded by John Brookes Johnston of the Royal Insurance Company.〔John Brookes Johnston (1818-1896), Modern English Biography, Frederic Boase, volume 5〕 The staff of the corps when first formed consisted of 64 men. By the early 1900s, owing to the many improvements that had taken place in the system of dealing with salvage, and the increase in work-load, staff numbers rose to over a hundred.
