There is a living history group for Glamorgan Home Guard.  They may have some old photos or records if you contact them

Top tip....Dont lock or complete a thread after x1 reply! ;D
One more charge and then be dumb,
            When the forts of Folly fall,
        May the victors when they come
            Find my body near the wall.
