Uf you have ever watch the movie by Alfred Hitchcok called the Saboteur there is a scene near the end with the ship laying on its' side in the berth. Lucky had a deal with the fed for sure.

Maintenance Maintenance Maintenance Maintenance.......

Just more stuff to try to keep clean in the field or malfunction or break. The old school M1A is the best way for me. Have learned through experience the KISS metod is always the best.

Never equated that speech with gun fighting or war. I believe it was about doing your best and not worrying about what the spectators thought about the participants performance in a sporting event. Just get in there and do your best.

I’m reading this article on my deck and a B26 and a Hellcat just flew over the house in a tight formation. I heard them coming before I saw them. Deep throaty sound and I knew I was in for a treat when they finally appeared over the house. That rumble those engines produce is beautiful. Must be...

The mystical combination of Parkerized steel and dark stained walnut reliably stirs the soul. YES. IT. DOES! We had several M14A2s in the arms room, when we deploted I also took one of the M14A2s. Naturally it doubled as a SAW when needed and also provided long range touch with its' excellent...

Excellent article!

Like slapping a Meatballs and Beans C rat can on the feed tray of an M60 MG to improve the ammo feed. Of course you have to eat the Meatballs and beans before you put it on.

Well don't feel like the Lone Ranger James! Many of us realize that light at the end of the tunnel is getting brighter!

Yep, it is called the 6th sense or bush sense. I think just about everyone has it but few recognize it.

Very coooool looking fighter, plus being very fast. Looking cool is half the battle!🤣

Informative article on a subject not often addressed, WWII Japanese weapon systems. Have a Japanese rifle and bayonet my uncle liberated on Guadalcanal during his visit with the USMC. Same type of bayonet as depicted in the cover photo.

Browning HP and the 1911 are my Faves'. If you are not familiar with SOG during the RVN war there are some great books by some SOG Green Berets. 'We Few' by Nick Brokhousen is a good start.

Great combat rifle, one of the best. I like it simple without all the gadgets and add-ons. The KISS method during high stress and extended away from base ops is always preferred. The iron sites on these puppies is dead on once the weapon is zeroed, also keeps the weapon slick and not having the...

I carried and still have a Randall model 14. Used it in Africa and the desert. Even used it once to help dig a deuce and half out of a muddy track in Africa. Sharpened right back up when finished! Even used it to chop down 4 to 5 inch trees once. Skinned deer with it also. Great knife but on...

-The Rangers had lost a gun Jeep and crew to an ambush just east of the airfield. That action was followed up by a squad of 82D troopers detailed to recover the Rangers bodies. A very good friend and team mate of mine was the squad leader. Jeff is no longer with us so I will give a...

Two of these puppies saved our bacon one day in a place called Dak To at the fire support base located there.

You are spot on about Dugout Doug. Un-revised history shows he was asleep at the wheel at very critical moments during the big one and Korea. Definitely asleep when Pearl took it also.

Major Harold Mors planned the operation but Skorzeny got the laurels. Most accounts of this raid give the impression it was all Skorzeny but the article puts a different and accurate light on the operation. I wonder how many times they rehearsed the op before they executed the mission.

Great story and written with just the right amount of humor.
