Dead Man's Shoes
第1話
Dead Man's ShoesSeptember 1940: Brian Ash, a direct entry officer of the Royal Engineers after ten weeks of basic training at the Hampshire Depot, joins 97 Tunnelling Company. Without benefit of training as a bomb disposal officer, he is immediately put in charge of a section whose previous officer was killed by a bomb. The unexploded bombs they deal with have been armed by electrical fuses that activate after being dropped, but sometimes fail to go off on impact. If they fail to explode on impact, they can detonate when vibrations caused by movement or contact close the circuit. Under the tutelage of Sergeant James, he defuses a relatively straightforward type 15 fused bomb, but is dismayed to learn that the Germans have deployed an even deadlier fuse, the type 17, that is rigged with a clockwork long-delay detonator activated by the bomb's impact.
Unsung Heroes
第2話
Unsung HeroesAsh is reprimanded, first by Francis for a newspaper story about the section that the 2IC believes injures the dignity of the service, then by Luckhurst for his reckless behaviour when defuzing a low-priority bomb. Ash becomes acquainted with new officer Ken Machin, who is assigned to his tutelage and billeted with him. Ash and Machin find they are to be sent on a hastily developed new disposal course.
Just Like a Woman
第3話
Just Like a WomanOn their course, Ash and Machin learn that the boffins have developed a powerful electromagnetic 'clockstopper' to counter the type 17's fuse. Ash gives in to Machin's pleadings, allowing him to finish disarming the type 17 discovered in a residential garden while Ash deals with a Category A bomb near a telephone exchange. In Ash's absence, the type 17 explodes, killing Machin, despite the clockstopper. Ash later finds the Category A bomb has ruptured without exploding, and has an intact type 17 fuse, which is also rigged with an anti-handling device called the Zeus 40 that detonates if there is an attempt to extract the fuse.
