The Johnson lmg was in FH1, on Guadalcanal.

[Captain Pyjama Shark]

I think that he meant the rifle. And wasn't the Johnson on Ortona as well?

The Johnson was given to Canadian troops in vanilla Bf1942 for some reason. In reality, outside of the USMC it was only used by the joint US/Canadian 1st Special Service Force.

BF1942 holds many mysteries. No4 for US, Russia. K98 for Japan. Oh and Japans also used to have StG44 instead of Type99. MP18 for Russia and they used to have the BAR instead of DP. And the T34/76 is just a 85 with shortened barrel. All those things.

Bar, bazooka, and Thompson for the British.

The "Pineapple of Death" containing 2oz of TNT. Early models issued in the Pacific were painted yellow because they thought it would better camouflage them in a jungle environment.

According to American Mk.II Hand Grenade - Inert-Ord.Net
"Yellow was the color code for high explosive ordnance at this time and HE grenades were painted accordingly. Understandably this was found to be an impractical color due to its high visibility to the enemy.
In 1942 the the color was changed to "olive drab" (OD) with a small yellow band. With many thousands of yellow grenade bodies in inventory they were repainted, green over the yellow. "

[Captain Pyjama Shark]

Ok, i shall rephrase. It shows a Thompson as their main submachine gun, as opposed to the Sten.
