I entered the army in a time of transition (early sixties) both in weaponry and the restucturing of infantry units from regiments to battalions and brigades within the division. This was during the period when the Garand was replaced by the M-14, and the browning .30 caliber, replaced by the M-60, the m-14 equiped with a selector switch allowing full auto replaced the Browning auto rifle (BAR)typically these were issued two to a squad. The weapons issued to a rifle squad pretty well dictates the tactics the squad will employ, its limitations and advantages decided by its weaponry and just as importantly the training is geared to this weaponry.we were all very surprised when in spring of 1965 three weeks prior to our departure from Okinawa to Vietnam we were issued the M-16, and even more surprised by being issued a caliber that was best suited for woodchucks, coyotes and other small game. Good points-it was light, we could carry three times the ammo we could for the m-14 all of them had full auto capabilities, and they could be fired on full auto with a least a semblance of accuracy. Bad points-To be continued
