One-Line stood a good head above most of his infantry company in the British Expeditionary Force which was why the short company sergeant-major always picked on him. With the two men engaging in a final and fatal argument during the chaotic retreat to Dunkirk, One-Line decided to join the growing band of deserters after landing at Ramsgate from a motor yacht which had rescued 10 exhausted soldiers from the beaches. No-one witnessed the shooting, but as One-Line said: “The bastard Red Caps would rather hang ours than kill theirs.” Sowerbutt organised a new identity for his friend, complete with a medical exemption, courtesy of the Scribe.
