Beschreibung
How would you clear a stoppage on a Bren Gun while in action. What is the most effective way to clear a wood of enemy forces. How best could you counter a landing by enemy airborne forces in your area. What measure can you take to help ensure accurate rifle fire at night. What qualities should you look for when selecting a patrol commander. Just a few of the practical questions posed - and answered - in the selection of publications included in The Home Guard Training Pocket Manual. A number of manuals and training pamphlets were privately published during World War II to supplement the slim official Home Guard manual produced by the War Office. Covering everything from patrolling, night fighting, drill and small arms proficiency to the legal powers of the Home Guard, these manuals were welcomed by the men of local Home Guard units keen to do everything possible to prepare for possible invasion - when they would be the first line of defense. This pocket manual collates a selection of material from these fascinating publications, often written by serving soldiers and reprinted multiple times due to demand.
