Barrie Friend describes how we were all weaned on tales of the Norman invasion of 1066, but since then we have kept our shores successfully sealed from our enemies’ threats (yes, OK, 1667 was a hiccup for us, and well done to the Dutch – when can we have our ships returned?)
But how did we defend our country from enemy invasion in more recent times and how did we plan to deal with the invaders if they arrived on British soil by boat or parachute? Barrie identifies the nature of the threats, the strategy behind the defence and the legacy around us today.
