Opis

This is a yarn about the adventures of a California Cop as he visits England in 1940 to assess the British attitude for his old friend Franklin Roosevelt. Sullivan Delaney, a Police Chief and a decorated Marine walks into a war in progress, shares in the evacuation process at Dunkirk, visits the English people from the wet soldiers at Dunkirk, to Pub crawlers, to their Prime Minister. He returns home aboard a British Destroyer and finds himself in the center of an ocean war. Returning to the Whitehouse in a worn and tired British Navy uniform that tickles the Roosevelt funny bone, he more than satisfies the Presidents concerns about the English people.
