On the road

Part 3: What bloody use are we?


Listen Later

Everything was going "swimmingly" until a sudden increase in refugee traffic indicates the real army, fighting 200 miles to the North, is in trouble.


Soon after 663 are former up and informed by Major Morgan they are to make for the coast and hopefully a troopship that will take them back to the UK. They arrive at the port and endure a heavy air raid before marching down to the docks where a small tug boat will ferry them out to a large, converted liner waiting nine miles away in the Loire estuary.


The boys of 663 think they are on their way home, but fate has a different outcome for them that will change everything for good.
