Gar-end, not Ga-Rand.

One of the first things my Dad taught me about the M1. I still shoot the H&R NM M1 he built for me in the mid 70’s, it wear a new Krieger barrel and a full pressure bedded stock/unitized front end etc.

I had not thought about it before but 50+ years ago I knew a beautiful girl named Garand. She pronounced it Gare-und.
