Hello Everyone,

For starters, thank you to Kevin for inspiring me to start this thread by replying to my questions about discipline in my Uncles thread http://www.mapleleafup.org/forums/ne...&threadid=3428 . I took liberties and used your words "discipline in WW2" as the subject line to draw people directly to the general topic, and hope you don't mind.

DISCIPLINE in WW2. What forms of discipline of soldiers were exacted during WW2, and what for? I think of people serving both "at home" and "Overseas".

I hope a lot of people will jump in here with facts and stories of personal experience, or stories told them by those who were there. I know the forces didn't use frying pans to flog people for misbehavior. Or at least, I don't think they did!

Karmen.
