City Boys at War

The Lloyd's Battery 1938–1940: A Gunner's Perspective

New Hardback Illustrated

Postscript summary

This wartime account is based on a collection of letters between the author’s aunt and uncle, an insurance broker who was recruited alongside colleagues shortly after their wedding to join the Royal Artillery’s Heavy Anti-Aircraft Regiment. He was subsequently involved in the evacuation of Allied troops and French refugees via western ports from Brittany to Marseilles in Operation Aerial, the importance of which this book argues has been overlooked.
