Description

It is the soldier's personal weapon, -rifle, carbine, pistol, machine-gun, -which ultimately decides the outcome of battle. Never before the Second World War had the infantryman been required to handle so large or sophisticated an armory. But never before had he been expected to shoot down an aeroplane or knock out a tank.
