Depends how good your machining is! :D

Obvious choice is the VFR800 arm. Difficult job though.

Thank God the Germans didn't have posters like that.

The tick sheet is a British invention, made by Sir Arthur Thomas during WW1, and kept secret until we needed it in 1945.

It was first used before the Yugoslavian air drop, and so all of the vital components were available, and led to the partial success of the eventually farcical high speed withdrawal once we realised that there were enemy soldiers in the same country as us.

The tick sheet consisted of:
1. Parachutes
2. Men
3. Food
4 Shiny boots
5. Lots of shouting

This was only partially effective due to the lack of inclusion of weapons, later rectified in the Big Push at La Trine in the second half of 1946.

I've amended the article, as there was originally no reference to Swinging Arms.
