A British Soldier Guarding a Gun Emplacement, 1940. Second World War. 'An island at bay - ready, yet hardly prepared. But an island in the midst of war, knowing a kind of peace. Peace that comes with knowing that one is doing the right thing, come what may. And so they waited patiently for the worst...'.
