I got a new book today on US Marine Corps gear. Called "782 Gear". I'm looking through it and there's a picture of a weird shovel I bought last year and couldn't find any information on. Turns out it's a modified M43 shovel. It's fixed, not folding. Only issued to the Marines. Supposedly, they are pretty rare.
