Mobile Guards

The Mobile Guards (Hebrew: המשמר הנע, romanized: Hamishmar hana), also known as the Manim from the initials of the Hebrew words, were a branch of the Notrim in Mandatory Palestine established at the beginning of the 1936–39 Arab revolt in Palestine to ambush Arab terrorists and to protect Jewish settlements and workers in their orchards and fields.[1]

There were about 60 units comprising 400 men. The manim travelled in armored vehicles.[1]

Notes

gollark: Obviously I'll have to prototype it first, but it would be neat.
gollark: With special hardware at junctions, a coordination server, and a bit of powered rail, it should be possible to use just 1 or 2 tracks per road and send carts anywhere, with fully passive (computerless) carts.
gollark: I thought about doing it in Chorus City, but it wouldn't make much sense since that's quite small.
gollark: Is there a way to get stuff installed under Switch City streets? I had a really cool idea for a routed rail transport system.
gollark: Besides, there are only 12.
