The British Army 1939-45 (1) North-West Europe

The Second World War was Britain’s last as a world power. For a year it saw Britain standing alone against the fascist dictatorships; winning it cost the sacrifice of the entire national wealth. This first book of three describes the uniforms developed for European service. It traces the appearance of the ‘Tommy’ from pre-war mobilization, through the years of defeat and endurance, to D-Day and the long fighting advance to Northern Germany. The book also includes a campaign summary, infantry organization tables, lists of arms and services and basic specifications of a number of heavy weapons.

2nd and 5th Battalions of the Gloucestershire Regiment fought in this Theatre of Operations.
