Here Marines are shown during the Korean War with M1 rifles during 1952.

The M1 equipped most of the United Nations infantry units in the Korean War. These men are from the Colombian Battalion.

One of the approximately 7,500 soldiers of the “Philippine Expeditionary Forces to Korea”

U.S. Marine Corps Silent Drill Platoon

https://www.barracks.marines.mil/Units/Company-A/Silent-Drill-Platoon/

THIS is a manifest demonstration of the high quality ergonomics of the US Rifle, M1.

With 10 inch WW2 era bayonets.

No slackers here. Making corporal in this outfit is no joke.

Turk Mauser bayonet converted for use on Garands. Saw heavy use in Korean War.

Have one and prefer it as it fits tighter... no noise with movement.
