Here's a fascinating film documenting the beginnings of the Ryton Home Guard in North Yorkshire.

I've tried to embed it, but it doesn't seem to work, so here's a link to this fascinating video clip:

Great stuff, many thanks! Fantastic thing that someone took the time and trouble do make such a documentation. Must have been a bit expensive also with the film and perhaps at all getting the film in the first place - there is a war on you know!

Excellent piece of history. Thanks for the link.
