Arthur Wilson

 Biographical information

 Arthur Wilson is the sergeant of the Walmington-on-Sea Home Guard.

Life Before the Platoon
He was well brought up, he went to a posh school called Meadow Bridge, and had a nanny. He was a Captain in the first war, and in the second, he ended up Sergeant in the Home Guard.

In the Platoon
Wilson was first to find out Lacey was a girl, but agreed to keep it secret. He also became a sort of parental influence to Lacey and Finlay, and they both started calling him Uncle, like Pike does. At the start, they did it for a laugh, but it sort of stuck.

He eventually married Mrs Pike, making Pike his step-son.

Personality and Traits
Laid-back, charming and a little bit sarcastic at times, often the one people go to for advice.
