Yes seems ridiculous these days as it was a suicide mission
to stay put and fight from one of those with Geeerrrmans coming up the beach or across the fields. Spent my childhood playing in them at Eccles (my father built a bungalow there after the '53 floods) with a friends all with toy guns. Whilst being a relatively brave person I think I'd have emptied my small magazine out of the 303 (I'm old enough to have gained a First Class in the CCF with the old SMLE) and then legged it westwards as fast as my legs would take me.
