Invasion exercises being held in the Cardiff and Barry area of South Wales, captured on a historic photo print. The year is 1942, amidst the turmoil of World War II. This image showcases an intense military exercise where an armoured car fearlessly leads the attack on Home Guard positions. The photograph takes us back to a crucial moment in history when nations were engaged in a fierce conflict for freedom and survival. As we gaze upon this snapshot from the past, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by brave soldiers who trained relentlessly to defend their homeland. The setting is South Wales, specifically Cardiff and Barry - areas that played a significant role during wartime due to their strategic location. These invasion exercises served as vital training opportunities for troops preparing for potential enemy attacks.
