My unit was issued the M9 in 1984. It has been 30 years or so.

“My unit was issued the M9 in 1984. It has been 30 years or so.”

[Chuckle] You’re most certainly right. Sorry about that. I was just doing a day’s worth of file management with 2001-2004 files, and I misspoke and dropped a decade there.

Where has the time gone? We were still being issued M1911A1 and Smith & Wesson pistols 30 years after the end of the Second World War. It seems like only yesterday the news of the adoption of the M9 Beretta was just coming out.
