Oh...AWT. A great way to train (mess with) Soldiers while staying at home. This time, thankfully,
was broken up some some semi-useful and entertaining tasks.
My military imagery is available for public domain. As the photographer, I don't have control over
how you may use it, but I ask that it be done with respect to the individuals represented here.

That looks like a replica A1!
Not a very good rifle, but that was all us medical types got.

These are just our 'rubber duckies' since we didn't want to get our weapons dirty and have to deal with cleaning them later. xD

The A1 was a light rifle.
I would have preferred an M14 over it any day!

Well done. I would imagine you camera-shooters are all quite adept with other sorts of weaponry.

Thank you. And you bet! I'm hoping that they haven't signed out my old 249 yet, I miss it.
Though the camera does make a pretty awesome bludgeon, too.

'Specially with the big glass.
I was a fair shot with the M16 back in the day. We pilots got .38 Specials since they could be operated with one hand.

Nice! I definitely prefer the M4 over that hulking beast.
