The photo shows a Section from the Middlesex Homeguard Bomb Disposal unit, somewhere in Wembley with a bomb they have dealt with. My Grandfather is the Lieutenant in the center front row. I would like to know what they have dealt with, the photo dates from sometime August 1943 to 1944 as the bomb disposal badge came into service in August 43.
