That being said, the Team belong to the Royal Warwickshire Regiment...

I did take a bit of liberty with their actual addresses, though. Roy, Matt, Will, and Jeremy all live closer to the city centre, mostly because they're apart of the bustling and growing economy that was there at the time (like Roy and Matt are actively involved in manufacturing). Tom is a little farther up north, where the farmland was sufficient for mixed farming like livestock rearing and orchards.
You'll get to see a lot of their homes and lives in England in S3, when they're all on leave. Hehe, can't wait!
