With a stern 'no' to another 'Munich' sent to Berlin, Britain girds for bombing raids and prays for peace, though staunch in her determination to resist another Nazi Coup. People line the streets of London. Newspaper headlines " What Roosevelt Told Hitler", and "Hitler Summons Generals". Police Notice - Air raid poster. Prime Minister Chamberlain gets into a car. Politicians enter 10 Downing Street. Troops training for action, digging trenches, soldiers saying goodbye to family (departure). A cabinet member reads a statement from the British government.
