From the chalk markings on the helmets, I'd say it was a training unit.

Nice picture. Im not sure I would hold a 1919 machine gun like that. I like my fingers...

It has no ammo in it. Unless he has three in the feedway, which I doubt...besides, we learned not to be afraid of our own weapons. I carried one of those...

Well I was never afraid of my own weapon but I sure was scared by the other guy's. I saw enough range accidents in 12 years to make me real nervous. I was also thoroughly impressed by my Drill Sergeants's insistence that all weapons were to be treated as loaded at all times and he would not tolerate anyone holding a weapon like that M19. He had a real talent for making his point.

Touche'...I always rode them hard about their safety too. Things happen if you're around enough weapons long enough...
