No, an M1
with 16" bayonet. Not much use if that disabled prisoner tried something though, way too long.

I am surprised that the officer is wearing his rank in the combat area ?

I'm guessing some of the guys here think the jeep has too many passengers in it.

I don't think so, I've seen that before, unless you mean the prisoner. I expect they went to some length to get him as they didn't go prisoner well. The full Col there may be involved in intelligence gathering or some such. Note he appears to be sporting a Hawley helmet liner. If he only knew what they would be worth today.

The picture reminds me of a movie... Pulp Fiction... They were holding a gun to a guys head too there, but then they hit a bump in the road, if I can recall correctly...
