The boorish, pompous Captain Square was a fictional character and Home Guard rival of Captain Mainwaring.
In this video, in a lighthearted fashion, we uncover the military campaign medals awarded to Captain Square who, like the Dad's Army character Lance Corporal Jones, was a former professional soldier and retired as a Colonel.
We discover he had a varied military career campaigning in South Africa, Afghanistan, serving alongside Lawrence of Arabia and fighting in Persia, modern day Iran.
