The Secret Sussex Resistance

Stewart Angell will be giving a talk on his research he started in 1992 on the role of the Sussex Resistance and its secretive operations. Sussex played a strategic role in establishing a highly secret ‘British Resistance’ during WWII. Put in place to counter a German invasion of this country these men would have sabotaged communications and supply lines to prevent their march on London. Highlights the men, their training and where their underground operational bases were secreted throughout Sussex.  Relatively few people have heard of the Home Guard ‘Auxiliary Units’ of World War Two. Formed in 1940 they were to be the British Resistance, countering a German invasion by delivering guerrilla warfare tactics throughout their localized areas.
