This video delves into Operation Carpetbagger, a significant World War II effort by the US and UK to supply French Resistance forces with arms and equipment in preparation for the Allied landings. The operation involved numerous air drops, delivering millions of pounds of gear. The most common weapon supplied was the MkII Sten, but other items included Brens, handguns, M1 Carbines, bazookas, and importantly, No4 Enfields. Following liberation, the French government attempted to collect these weapons, with many being stored and later sold as surplus. The video features a specific No4 Lee Enfield that was marked with a "PP" property mark and inventory number before its sale.
