"Lest We Forget"

The Home Guard's First Appearance At The Cenotaph

It was raining hard in St Leonards on Sea as the 07.13 departed, bound for London Charing Cross 


08.45  Breaks-down at Tonbridge 


Long wait for next one to London


 Arrive at Horse Guards just in time


Dad's Army wait patiently in the rain


Shirley checks our names


Michael is looking for Jimmy


I unwrap the Home Guard wreath


Lest We Forget


We form up near Downing Street


11am   Two minutes silence . . . .


 Whoops, Jimmy's dropped his Brolly
( Stupid Boy ! )


 Move yourselves, we're off !


The Guards Bands play as we deliver the wreaths  . . .
