Evacuees were sent away to other places like Wales! Their parents didn’t want them in the War because they could get killed! During World War 2 around three-and-a-half million British people, mainly children, were evacuated en masse, by train, bus and even boat, away from possible air- raids in the big cities. Few evacuees knew where they would end up after a long and tiring journey which sometimes lasted for days. Often they would be dropped off in small ad hoc groups at stations and halts all the way along a branch railway line.

There the evacuees stood around, like cattle at an auction, waiting to be chosen by their prospective foster- parents. And that was just the start. Few evacuees knew where they would end up after a long and tiring journey which sometimes lasted for days. Often they would be dropped off in small ad hoc groups at stations and halts all the way along a branch railway line. Then they would be marched straight from the station to the local village hall where the inhabitants had gathered to meet them.

Over 60 MILLION people died because of the War!!!!!!!! If the war hadn’t of happened none of those people would of died!!
