A Very British Mutiny

In September 1943, 191 men from Montgomery's 8th Army-who had helped to drive Rommel's troops out of Africa - refused to take part in the Allied fight for Salerno, Italy. Interviews, reconstructions and previously classified documents show how errors forced the soldiers into a predicament that caused their war pensions to be reduced, their medals reclaimed and their honour questioned.
