Head0001, unfortunately my father passed away 8 years ago. He actually brought two of them back from Vietnam, I guess as war booty. He actually used/was issued an m-14 while he served. He was a grunt in Big Red One and did some time on a river boat in some capacity. He was never really forth coming about his experiences in Vietnam, and I can now appreciate that after 16 years of service and two tours in the big liter box. Thanks for the interest.
