A PLAQUE will be unveiled later this month by fighters in memory of those lost in the Kilbirnie Street blaze 50 years ago.
The fire - which took place at a cash and carry warehouse in the Port Eglinton area of Glasgow - began as fairly routine, but tragically resulted in one of the highest losses of life for the UK fire service in a single incident during peacetime, with seven members of the Glasgow Fire Service dying in the line of duty.
