M1 Garand was one of the greatest weapons made and probably won WW-II. I loved it even though it was heavy. Wish I had one now as they were accurate to a fault way down range or a 1903 Springfield which we used for drill (even more accurate) and got to fire on the range a couple of times. As one of my instructors said "You could shoot through a tree with an M1 and then beat him to death if you ran out of ammo". And where do we get these men and now women? Every generation they seem to appear and step foward although fewer and fewer as time goes on. When they no longer step up to serve God Save America.
