A picture of a British infantry regiment which held the whole of a large sector of the Somme during a vital stage in the German advance. They were cut off from the main body of the B.E.F. They commandeered vehicles and turned themselves into a motorised unit and went for the enemy for five days continuously without success. They are shown moving about the country in their lorries, and once when they were suddenly surrounded by the enemy they all took up a defensive position by the roadside. June 1940
