    I never liked digging into bandoleers when in a hurry. I'd rather have it all in a belt too. I expect he had reason...

    Why risk your life pulling it out of the ground to find out?

    Just a Shin Gunto anyway, so not worth pulling of the ground in 1945.

    Besides, a bullet has nicked the handle.
    “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

    Much changes, much remains the same.
