For Cpl WW McFarland, USMCR. A pic' of 'my' M-42 at 29 Palms in late '58. I also joined the reserves at age 17 in '54. Made Pfc before I went to boot camp. Doesn't seem fair does it? (Had a buddy that stayed in the reserves and never went to boot camp). I left when the Corps decided to use rockets instead of these (WWII?) tracks.
Also had experience with quad fifties. If you think one fifty is fun… No stories except that I never hit much firing this rig. We also practiced at using the M-42 in a ground support role.
