'' I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear. ''
Vond ik nog op het internet:
This is the six-pocket bandoleer which was issued to line infantrymen of the Army carrying the M1 "Garand" Rifle from 1943 on during WWII to carry six 8-rd. clips of ammunition. The bandoleer is distinguishable from the early-WWII bandoleers by the addition of markings to the ends of the bandoleer (see close-up image below) which gave the caliber and type of .30-06 ammunition and the lot number of the production. Prior to 1943, the bandoleers were unmarked and, instead, had a small slip of paper inserted into the top pocket with the production lot information. Due to loss of the paper and the consequent inability to trace defective ammo back to its source, the Army started printing the information directly onto the bandoleer
