The Machine Gun Platoons utilised Universal Carriers to move the MGs while both the AA Company and Mortar Company used 15-cwt Trucks.

Only certain Regiments and Divisions used the Divisional (Support) Battalion set up. It was not universal and in the case of the Cheshire Regiment, it was frowned upon so much that none of the Battalions of that Regiment used it at all and retained the Divisional (Machine Gun) Battalion formation.
