British County Divisions

The County Divisions of World War II were raised by the British Army in the dangerous days of 1941. They were static formations which were supposed to command the Indepedent Infantry Brigades (Home) which were on anti-invasion duties. Each coast in danger had its own County Division.

These formations had none of the usual divisional units that other divisions had. Any they commanded were temporarily on loan from other formations.
