The History Channel had a show on Iwo Jima last night and they described a Marine using a "stinger" machinegun to assault a bunker complex. Apparently the Marines had taken the aircraft version of the Browning 1919 with a higher rate of fire and added parts from the BAR and Garand to create a "field expedient" SAW. That got me wondering how many other similar improvements/inventions the troops have come up with that eventually moved into wider service.
One other that came to mind was the hedgerow plows for Shermans from Normandy. How many others can we come up with?
