The solder in the foreground iscarrying a CAR-15 machine gun. The other special forces member is equipped with one too but ithas an M-79 grenade launcher on it. He also has a "Grease Gun" with a silencer. A Grease Gun is anautomatic weapon similar to a submachine gun.Credit (UPI photo) 12-18-68 JO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
