Boy, if you bought the right stocks about that time you'd a been set for life. Congressmen probably did.
“There are invisible rulers who control the destinies of millions. It is not generally realized to what extent the words and actions of our most influential public men are dictated by shrewd persons operating behind the scenes.”
Edward Bernays, 1928

I wonder why no LVT P5 s. I was later and worked on these beasts(3rd Force Service Regiment 3rd FSR) :
Odd they actually floated....LVTP-5 amphibious Amphibious Personal Carrier (1956)
and we all loved the M14
