Loyalty on the Home Sweet Home Front - Sarah Lysaght

It is the summer of 1944. The Second World War is in full swing and George's workload is larger than ever. He tries to ignore the warning signs but one day he is suddenly taken seriously ill. Although sixty-eight years old, George is not prepared for this and it's a shock to him that he must stop working. Left most days with only his thoughts for company, he takes pleasure in looking back over all the things he's done in his life. From a childhood growing up in Cheltenham, where he discovered the truth about his father's tragic death, George went on to join the army and play a role during the Boer War. Decades later he reminisces about his army canteen career, his time in the military police and how fate brought him to Farnham, where he married and raised a large family. His only desire now is to get back to his job of NAAFI inspector, which he has enjoyed for the past thirty years. But will he ever be well again? And will he get to see the end of this war? Or will time simply run out for George?
