| Description |
In training: Home Guard units, like this one on camp at the Callow, Hereford, were caricatured as charmingly incompetent by the BBC series Dad’s Army. In reality Home Guardsmen were steeling themselves to mount a final defence against the German invasion which was expected at any time. The men were prepared to fight to the bitter end.
