The book concentrates heavily on WWII and on the personal experience of those who were trained at the various establishments dotted around the UK in WWII and at Ganges at other times. From Jack Cornwall to Class 112 lost in its entirety on Royal Oak, 15- and 16-year-olds trained hard and sometimes paid the supreme sacrifice.
