GOB is right on about the "Posse Committas" which says the PEOPLE help the LEOs restore order. ALSO, GOB, I concur about "Enough Gun." I was issued a MATEL 16 in 1965 and that .223 did not impress me then or now about a RIFLE gun. Nuff said.

Did any of the guys you served with refuse to carry an M-16 and use a captured VC weapon?
A few people I know tried it but their rifles sounded different than ours and some guys almost shot their buddies, thinking they were VC.
It was one of those damned if you do, damned if you don't type things.
Best wishes, Bill
