This is pretty straightforward as a question: in a scenario where Britain is neutral in the First World War, do significant numbers of men join the armies of the Entente (France, Russia, etc.) as volunteers?
What are people's thoughts? There's a volunteer tradition - both of Britons joining foreign armies or venerating volunteers in other countries (Garibaldi is a good example of the latter) - in Britain, but I wonder if the fight against Germany would see a repeat of past trends. I tend towards believing there would have been, but I'm wondering what others think.
