One of the first weapons I handled in the army was a Lewis. I was still in basic training and we were doing a trooping of the color, we had a weapons display to set up. They dropped the weapons off and I was among the responsible to see that these didn't go stray, so if I was going to be there, I'd figure them out. I handled and stripped and assembled...Lewis, Sten, Bren, #1 and #4 Lee Enfield...Ross rifle... I liked it then and later when firing it.
