  • Exploring and talking about the WW2 Type 24 Pill Box.
    I was thinking recently about what and how many defences exist today?
    What are the future defences of Great Britain against invasion Domestic or foreign?
    Do you know where your local defences are prebuilt or natural?
    Where would you go if under attack?
    Do you have stashed supplies?
    Anyway ... It's all food for thought Old Chaps!

    Sandhurst actually ran a Operation Sea Lion wargame to see how the invasion would have panned out.
    The umpires (both German and British) were unanimous that it would have been a bloodbath.
    Quote *"Of the 90,000 German troops who landed, only 15,400 returned to France. 33,000 were taken prisoner, 26,000 were killed in the fighting and 15,000 drowned in the English Channel."*
    I understand the German high command were incredibly relieved when Sea Lion was cancelled.
