    Old Memories

    Great List. And there are still other movies that belong on the list, like the Sands of Iwo Jima, with John Wayne (who carried a M1 Garand, while others carried BARs and Carbines).

    There's a classic shot of Errol Flynn being parachuted into Burma (Objective Burma) carrying his M1A1icon carbine.

    Brings back old memories. My dad took me to see To Hell and Back with Audie Murphy when it first came out in '55 (I was 8 years old)

    Thanks.
