    National Library of Ireland on The Commons As you mention it, a lot of recruits from Coventry ended up in the machine gun corps, because it was assumed you worked in the motorcycle industry, and could operate and/or fix a motorcycle used to transport the machine gun (like my brother-in-law's grandfather). Likewise if you were from Grimsby the chances were you'd end up in an armoured trawler fighting the submarine menace (like Gainsborough Trinity goalkeeper Jim Bagshaw). But yes, difficult to find a suitable role for a shirt-cutter.
