Description
This is a view of fire fighting equipment in Japan. On either side are hard suction hoses attached to individual pumps. In the center is a linen hose attached to another pump. The horizontal piece at the top of the center pump is a handle for hand pumping. The Japanese firefighters have arranged these to show the visiting American team of firefighters. From Basil Rice.
