Standard training for all in 1957. We fired the BAR the Thompson, the Grease Gun, the M1 and the full auto M2 carbine model 1911 45 sparingly.
Marines? I enlisted in the Army ten years later in 1967. I got to fire the M14 a lot, but no pistols and nothing automatic. I was even on KP the day everyone else got to go out and throw a grenade, grrrrrrrrr!
