Yes.....and I would want a bayonet, too.
“Yes.....and I would want a bayonet, too.”
Yep, I was a barely a teenager when I carried a German military rifle and matching bayonet in its original scabbard across town. They were captured off of a German POW by a relative in Belgium. The State Police waved a friendly hello as they drove by while I walked across town with the rifle on the shoulder and the bayonet and scabbard on the web belt with the canteen. Those were different days.
