most of the photos don’t
carry a date, but presumably John Stanley left the Home Guard when the family
moved away from the Wimbledon area in November 1954, so all the photos would
be late 1940’s/early 1950’s the Home Guard was
disbanded at the end of WW2, but a modernised version was briefly
re-established in December 1951 – this would further limit the dates of the
photos to 1951-4, although at least 2 are dated 1955, when John Stanley had
already left the Wimbledon area |
