doyler Posted May 25, 2015 Share #10 Posted May 25, 2015 Camp Pendleton, 1942 or 43. Agreed its a training era photo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKIPH Posted May 25, 2015 Share #11 Posted May 25, 2015 If you have an M1 slung over the shoulder like that, you not in a hostile environment. You couldn't get it off quick enough to use it. I agree it's just a training, or public relations photo. SKIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

etienne Posted May 28, 2015 Share #13 Posted May 28, 2015 Great shot! Look at empty cartridge pockets, WW1 canteen, and cover.(WW1 or 1st pattern MC?) The hook seems very high on the back of the cover ... I guess it's a MC pattern, felt lined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
