If you like M1 Garands,
and haven't seen this then you need to watch it. Cool footage from Springfield Armory during WWII and accounts of the M1 from men who actually used them during WWII and the Korean Conflict, and how effective they were against human targets.

One of these Marines gets a telegram informing him that President Truman will be awarding him the M.O.A. in the Rose Garden. He is out of the Marine Corps. and working a job. He calls Marine HQ and asks if they can just mail him the medal. Then Truman steps all over his spit shined shoes and pisses him off. Too funny.
