Yes i will concede that the LDV had recruited at least 1.5 million, but they were to be used to supplement the local law enforcement such as the police to keep law and order, they however were never to engage outright attacks on any invading army as they were not an authorized military organization, they were a militia nothing more and nothing less, and had they engaged the German forces they would have been shot on the spot if captured and they would not have been taken POW, Also the LDV retained their civilian capacity.

And had the Germans launched Operation Seelowe and by any miracle established a beachead, i can honestly say that the USA would have wiped their hands of Britain and stopped any supply convoys thus those millions of guns would have never have been sent, thus depriving the British of weapons.

Plus one thing has bothered me, if the Germans had the capacity to launch a seaborne invasion of Norway, why could it not do the same with Britain, even taking into consideration of the material losses by the German Navy.
