Blast from the past | D-Day+75
We found this interesting read over at the americanrifleman.org website and thought to give it a share here too. It covers the weapons used from the Airborne troops during the invasion and provides some interesting knowledge for the WWII gunaddict.
This Springfield Armory U.S. M1911 pistol was issued to PFC Jack Agnew of the 101st Airborne Division. Next to it is a Colt-made World War II M1911A1. The items shown with the guns belong to S/Sgt.
