Re: Scrap Drives May Have Trashed Cars, But Were the Drives Necessary?
One thing that always rankled me was the "Gun drives" that they had. The Govt told gun owners they should donate their privately owned rifles, shotguns, pistols etc. to the British so their people could resist the coming German invasion. We donated thousands of guns, which the Brits never returned. They used them to reinforce concrete sidewalks, etc after the war, and we never saw them again.
