A film from the Philpott File series with Trevor Philpott

The second of two Files on the Salvation Army. Their bonnets and their brass bands may have a Victorian quality - but most of the men and women who become serving officers sign the 'Articles of War' in the heat of their youth. They renounce for a lifetime all career ambition and all hope of wealth, and they will 'fight,' for a pittance, on whatever grimy battlefield their commanders choose to send them.
They know well enough the traps the devil sets, and they know he sets the most tempting ones for the young. And much of their most difficult work is done amongst suburban wives, runaway provincial girls and the bewildered young men to whom a steady job seems like a form of death.
