Légende

A British Local Defence Volunteer on Guard, 1940. Second World War. 'Summer 1940. After two months, now even the stolid Home Guard shows signs of impatience. Having worked up a hate, one hates to see it wasted. Why not come and get it over with? [ie why don't the Germans invade?]'. From "Time To Remember - Standing Alone", 1940 (Reel 3); documentary film about events of later months of 1940.
