The story

Roberts is a former squadron sergeant major from the Royal Tank Regiment, convicted of assaulting his commanding officer after orders to lead a suicidal attack.

Like Roberts, the RSM is a career soldier and sees his duty as breaking down failed soldiers, then building them back up again "into men".

The RSM dryly points out Williams volunteered for North Africa just as the Germans began bombing London (where Williams previously worked).
