    Here is a web page that relates just one story out of thousands that highlights the experiences of one such unsung hero. Iit coincidentally contains a graphic account of carbine usage in combat by a soldier who was a member of General Patton's Third Army during its march into Germanyicon in 1944/1945.

    The exploits of James Watson (US Army) in WWII

    I think such accounts add to the importance of collecting and preserving USGI carbines.
