    I remember that bed of rifles story from a man that lived next door to my Grandmother. He joined the
    USMC when the Korean War started in June 1950. He use to tell us later on, that if you had a behavior
    problem in Boot Camp, you had to sleep on a bed of rifles !

    Note the op handles are all up. I know there's something happening but hard to say just what. I'm sure the DIs could explain.
