Britain operated on a 'lease-lend' policy with the USA to supply military vehicles and equipment; that is, an agreement for the UK to pay off the cost on a kind of hire-purchase basis in instalments once the war was over. This was carried out, and only completed about 15 years ago.

Describe two actions the US took to support the allies?
Roosevelt sought a few ways to help the allies. For instance, he asked Congress to withdraw the neutrality law which banned the sale of arms to countries occupied in war. Although some isolationists blocked his move, FDR still managed to make a compromise that the United States could sell arms to the Allies under the "cash-and-carry" plan. The "cash-and-carry" plan was that the allies had to pay cash for the goods and carry them on their own ships. Another way the United States helped the allies was the fifty old American war ships. By 1940, German submarines took down many British ships. When they needed help, President Roosevelt agreed to give then fifty old American destroyers. Once again, there was a catch in this move. In exchange for the fifty old American destroyers, Britain gave the United States 99-year leases on military bases in Newfoundland and the Caribbean.
How did the united give aid to nations resisting Hitler?
In September of 1939, Roosevelt persuaded Congress to pass a "Cash-and-carry" provisoion that allowed warring nations to buy U.S. arms as long as they paid cash and transported them in their own ships. But the policy began to look like too little too late. By summer 1940, France had fallen and Britain was under siege. Roosevelt scrambled to provide the British with "all aid short of war."By June he had sent Britain 500,000 rifles and 80,000 machine guns, and in early September the United States traded 50 old destroyers for leases on British military bases in the Caribbean and Newfoundland.
