===Misc=== *'''What Ever the Fuck the Homeguard could find''': After Dunkirk the British had a serious dearth of military weapons and was under the assumption that the German could try and jump the Channel at any moment. So at the same time as the Army tried to rebuild it self, the British also set up a civilian force, the Local Defense Volunteers, otherwise known as the Homeguard. But with the army it self short on weapons, the Homeguard had to get. . .creative when it came to armament. Old geezers bringing out their hunting shotguns and World War 1 guns and such were not uncommon. Hell at one point 250,000 fucking PIKES were ordered, and the guns were not much better at times as they got all the old crap the army didn't want. Not to mention the improvised armored vehicles with armor riveted on or trucks with concrete pillboxes. It was a mess early though it did get better when the Yanks started to get involved and after the actual army got fully equipped the surplus got handed over to the Home Guard. The pike thing actually caused a minor scandal, Churchill had said something along lines of even a pike will do and someone took it a bit too literally. * '''No.2 Flamethrower'''
