A Malvern Skyline Production
Malvern’s Secret War Heroes
by Rachel Tobin
Set in the Bluebird tearooms in Malvern during World War 2, the locals are wondering who these ‘outsiders’ are, arriving in trucks with strange equipment set up in the back.
They wear spectacles and tweed jackets and the girls look like they are just out of school. All they seem to do, is wander around town, in groups, apparently showing no interest whatsoever in joining the war effort. They are reluctant to say why they have appeared.
Are they conscientious objectors, petty criminals or what? Why have they arrived? Also why are they being billeted to local residents to accommodate them in their homes, often against their wishes?
As the story unfolds all is eventually revealed.
