Modern housing estate, Marsh Lane/Rimrose Road, Bootle, Liverpool

During World War Two, the above site, which had been laid waste following the massive German bombing of the dockland area in May 1941, was turned into a wartime military camp by the United States Army. Looking at the now peaceful scene above, it is hard to believe such momentous events took place less than 70 years ago!
