My rifle is a 1955 vintage CMP....I wonder if it's one of these? How I'd love to know its stories.....
No grenades for light man?
There are two in the foreground on the right and two on the left on the blanket.
Missed those :(
the guy on the right has a lot less stuff.
Perhaps they did not think he would live as long in the atomic age.
