More from the IWM:


Quote:
A worker in this large warehouse of a shoe factory somewhere in Somerset, stands on a huge pile of worn army boots. This mountain of footwear is sorted and selected for re-building. About 24% are unsuitable for army re-use and will be repaired and distributed to prisoners of war instead.

At a long trestle table in this shoe factory in Somerset, Corporal Salvi (originally from Framingham, Massachusetts) and his civilian colleagues sort through piles of worn boots sent to the factory from all over Britain. Three quarters of the boots and shoes will be rebuilt and the rest will be repaired and distributed to prisoners of war. More sacks of boots are stacked up behind them, waiting to be sorted.
