    Whatever the reasons for the Japanese surrender, the bomb or the communist yoke, dad survived the air war over Europe. But one could not know his prospects of the same over Japan.

    My grandpa - marine

    HUGE fan of the M1

    Big fan of the BAR

    Said he liked the m3 grease gun b/c it was tremendously easy to stay on target b/c of the low cyclic rate

    Did not prefer the 1911, but it was ok
