Now where did I say that publicly? I remember I did but I can't remember where...

It's true, my family kinda hated me for it because I kept bringing home beta HW and beta DVD movies that didn't work in some fairly profound ways.

Ohh the grips are sweet too...

Thanks! I like them too. I would prefer darker but she liked them that way.

Mauser bring back from WWII, I believe I dated it as a 1934. Was a birthday gift from my brother and business partner last year. I love old mil-surps the sense of history when holding them is amazing and I would love it if they could talk.

Yeah the pix are sucky but all I have of it.

I'm thankful for my Father's service to the US, coming back alive and for the Army that taught him how to use the M1 Garand with the bayonet:

Rumbaoa, Corporal Prudencio

GENERAL ORDERS
NUMBER 580; 14 AUGUST 1951
AWARD OF THE SILVER STAR. By direction of the President, under the provisions of the Act of Congress, approved 9 July 1918 (WD Bul 43, 1918), and pursuant to authority in AR 600-45, the Silver Star for gallantry in action is awarded to the following-named enlisted man:
Corporal Prudencio E Rumbaoa, RA 29 044 898, Infantry, United States Army, a member of Company A, 19th Infantry Regiment, 24th Infantry Division distinguished himself by courageous action near Chaechi-hyon, Korea on 3 June 1951. His company was attacking with the mission of securing a very high and steep-sided hill from an estimated reinforced enemy company, stubbornly defending the hill from well-prepared, sandbagged and camouflaged positions. The enemy had a preponderance of automatic weapons strategically placed on the forward slope which made it necessary for the attacking platoons to work in and destroy them from very close range. As the company advanced up the slope, the lead platoon was pinned down by one of these automatic weapon positions. Corporal Rumbaoa, a rifleman, refused to take cover and continued to advance through the intense enemy fire. Firing his rifle as he attacked, he succeeded in killing the gunner, momentarily silencing the position. Running the next 20 yards with complete disregard for his personal safety, he jumped into the enemy hole. With slashing bayonet and crushing rifle butt smashes, he overpowered and killed the 3 remaining enemy and signaled his company to advance. From this forward and exposed position, he delivered accurate and devastating covering fire for the advancing company as he killed 4 grenadiers who attempted to slow the advance from high ground overlooking the company. Throughout the entire action, he killed 8 enemy and allowed his company to advance and secure the objective. Corporal Rumbaoa's courageous action and deep devotion to duty reflect the highest credit on himself and the United States Infantry. Entered military service from Honolulu, Territory of Hawaii.​

And thank you Lieutenant Victor Diaz for your courage in action & leading these soldiers in this same battle:

DIAZ, VICTOR F.
Citation:
The President of the United States takes pleasure in presenting the Distinguished Service Cross to Victor F. Diaz (0-1341081), First Lieutenant (Infantry), U.S. Army, for extraordinary heroism in connection with military operations against an armed enemy of the United Nations while serving with Company C, 1st Battalion, 19th Infantry Regiment, 24th Infantry Division. First Lieutenant Diaz distinguished himself by extraordinary heroism in action against enemy aggressor forces in the vicinity of Chaechi-hyon, Korea, on 3 June 1951. On that date, Company C was assigned the mission of attacking and securing hill positions from a well-entrenched hostile force. As the men proceeded toward their objective, they were subjected to a devastating crossfire from hidden enemy machine-gun emplacements which effectively pinned them down. Immediately rushing to the front of the company through the heavy volume of fire, Captain Diaz urged his men forward, setting an example by rushing at the nearest hostile machine-gun emplacement and killing its three occupants with his pistol. Inspired by his courageous actions, the men renewed their assault and routed the enemy from the hill after a bitter struggle. Skillfully deploying his men in defensive positions, Captain Diaz encouraged them and directed their fire as the enemy launched a fierce counterattack. After being repulsed with numerous casualties, the hostile force regrouped and, preceded by a mortar barrage, attacked again. With their ammunition running low, the friendly troops received an order to fall back to more formidable positions. Although painfully wounded by an exploding mortar shell, Captain Diaz remained in his position, covering the withdrawal of his men by firing his carbine at the on-rushing enemy. Not until he was the only man left on the hill and the enemy threatened to encircle his position did he withdraw.
Headquarters, Eighth U.S. Army, Korea: General Orders No. 763 (October 12, 1951)
Home Town: New York, New York
