I was assured by my late Grandfather that the reality of the Home Guard when he was a member was extremely close. His favourite tale related to their own "Private Godfrey" (willing, but far from able) who was used a mock casualty during an exercise, strapped to a stretcher and then dropped accidentally at the top of a steep bank down which he then rolled!
