On Our Doorstep Parts 1 and 2
ON 0UR DOORSTEP I MEMORIAM THE SECOD WORLD WAR 1939 to 1945 HOW THOSE LIVIG I SOME OF THE PARISHES SOUTH OF COLCHESTER, WERE AFFECTED BY WORLD WAR 2 Compiled by E. J. Sparrow Page 1 of 156 ON 0UR DOORSTEP FOREWORD This is a sequel to the book “IF YOU SHED A TEAR” which dealt exclusively with the casualties in World War 1 from a dozen coastal villages on the orth Essex coast between the Colne and Blackwater. The villages involved are~: Abberton, Langenhoe, Fingringhoe, Rowhedge, Peldon: Little and Great Wigborough: Salcott: Tollesbury: Tolleshunt D’Arcy: Tolleshunt Knights and Tolleshunt Major This likewise is a community effort by the families, friends and neighbours of the Fallen so that they may be remembered. In this volume we cover men from the same villages in World War 2, who took up the challenge of this new threat .World War 2 was much closer to home. The German airfields were only 60 miles away and the villages were on the direct flight path to London. As a result our losses include a number of men, who did not serve in uniform but were at sea with the fishing fleet, or the Merchant avy. These men were lost with the vessels operating in what was known as “Bomb Alley” which also took a toll on the Royal avy’s patrol craft, who shepherded convoys up the east coast with its threats from: - mines, dive bombers, e- boats and destroyers. The book is broken into 4 sections dealing with: - The war at sea: the land warfare: the war in the air & on the Home Front THEY WILL OLY DIE IF THEY ARE FORGOTTE. -

Overview This revised and updated edition of the classic Cold War novel Team Yankee reminds us once again might have occurred had the United States and its Allies taken on the Russians in Team Yankee: World War III, had cooler geopolitical heads not prevailed. When Nazi Germany was destroyed, it was evident that Russian tank armies had become supreme in Europe, but only in counterpart to US air power. Likewise when the Russians overran Berlin they sent a signal to the Allies what their land armies could accomplish. Thankfully the tense standoff continued on either side of the Iron Curtain for nearly half a century. During those years, however, the Allies beefed up their ground capability, while the Soviets increased their air capability, even as the new jet and missile age began thanks much to captured German scientists on both sides. Team Yankee posits a conflict that never happened, but which very well might have, and for which both sides prepared for decades. -

With the squadron commander’s Spartan burning furiously on the road next to the church and contact with regiment spotty due to jamming, Captain Moran realized it was up to him to decide when to break contact. They’d rehearsed doing this time and again during map exercises back in garrison. Yet even then, it had always been a tricky affair, with decisions based more on guesswork than a clear, concise assessment of the situation. Doing so under fire, with the Russians ready to pounce on them the second they realized the squadron was pulling out would be ‘interesting’. One mistake would be deadly. After a quick glance down at the map laid out on the roof of his Spartan, he decided 1 Troop would be the next to go. It was not only the most exposed, the lieutenant commanding it was, in his opinion, on the verge of cracking under the stress of probes by Russian infantry who were infesting the woods on the squadron’s left. If that troop was to stand any chance of escaping, 4 Troop’s Strikers would have to suppress the Russian tanks in the woods from its position in the village. “Right,” the 2IC murmured to himself under his breath. “Let’s see if we can make this…” The whine of incoming artillery caused the 2IC to drop down into the turret of his Scimitar, putting an end to both his mutterings and his preparations for the moment.
