Remember the Regulars

Providing content that helps to highlight the role of the Regular and Territorial Armies, as well as the Commonwealth and Free Forces deployed in Home Defence of the UK during the Second World War.

The story of these units is rarely told, despite them being at the forefront of the defence of the UK from the outbreak of the war. The Home Guard get all the attention but the true story wasn't all old men and young boys armed with pitchforks and carving knives tied to broom handles.

From time to time I'll also cover some of my archaeological work looking at the wartime defences in the UK, particularly pillboxes.

AI will never be used in my content.
