You can find at least one interesting fact in any book you read about the Second World War. Just the other day I was reading The Boys' Crusade : The American Infantry in Northwestern Europe. The author, Paul Fussell, states that the American Army allocated 22.5 sheets of toilet paper per day for its soldiers, and the British allocated three.

Here is a good site where I got some of my facts from:
