Summaries

A ragtag group of Home Guard volunteers prepare for an imminent German invasion during World War II.

1940. France has fallen and Germany is poised to invade England. In towns all across Britain volunteer Army units form from local, generally older, townsfolk. This volunteer force would be the Home Guard. We follow the adventures and misadventures of such a unit in the small south coast town of Walmington-on-Sea.—grantss
