He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose
There are no great men, only great challenges that ordinary men are forced by circumstances to meet.

Not sure if that's the shell case at 14:00 just to the Rt of the front sight (Or pic error) who ever they are slinging lead at is up high, possibly sniper!!!
That line unless there are vehicles out of sight on the left it would make a bit of a juicy target for an MG 42 operator.

I don't think the North Koreans or Chinese used the MG42 much, if at all.

On the other hand a friend of mine...long gone now, told me he DID see mostly Japanese

Please tell us Garand guys how you know it's an M2.

Fire sector on left side at the rear of the receiver ring. It's plainly visible in this photo.
