Hi Facedown. Interesting picture with The MP carrying an M1 carbine.

The MP carrying an M1 carbine.

I have a friend who went to RVN, mostly in the highlands. He carried a Thompson except during "visits", whereupon he would bury it and pick up his GI.

I carried both the M-16 and M-1 carbine at different times. Of the two I prefered the carbine, if for no other reason than if you ran out of ammo you had a club, with the 16 you got a big piece of plastic.
