Description: | During the Second World War, the Home Guard was set up to carry out war duties at home. London Transport established its first Territorial Army unit in 1938. By 1940 seven Home Guard battalions had been established, which at their height comprised nearly 30,000 members.
This is a commemorative publication celebrating the history of London Transport's Home Guard from 1940 to 1946. The distinctive London Transport roundel on the front cover incorporates a wreath and the company seal into the design. | Format: | image/jpeg | Publisher: | London Transport Museum | Rights holder: | Transport for London | Subjects: | Transport London at War Identity and Icons | Source: | London Transport Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
