Onward Christian Soldiers: The Anglican League
A mechanised company of the St Augustine Brigade, currently guarding the Medway Crossing against the Fascists. Known to their allies in the Workers Defence Corps of the TUC as the 'Bluebells'.
While I come to your site for the cool miniatures John, I love seeing the beautiful pictures of England you post. That bluebell wood is gorgeous! Living in Southern California with its endless vistas of asphalt and desert makes me appreciate what you see and experience even more.
dear Host I used to give visiting lectures at Riverside. I ended up dreaming about rolling green hills. J. PS Bluebells are the only plant, i think, unique to the British Isles. They have colonised to coast of nearbye France. They are regarded as a weed, traditionally.
