    Very sad to hear that, unfortunately many of the individuals who have really done the hard yards and are in fact the very foundation of our collective interest, are reaching a certain age...

    At least Larry leaves a wonderful body of work behind him for future generations to enjoy...

    I consider War Baby 1 and 2 as enjoyable reading as well as reference material. The story of the carbine is a fascinating read and it shows America at its finest. No other country could build 6+M rifles in such a short time and all parts will interchange. It used what was available and got the job done. Larry wrote a great book and his legacy will live on for many decades to come.
