Posted on the K&C webpage. Kind of holds some of the features of the comic book character from Easy company Sgt Franklin "Frank" John Rock.
From Wikipedia:
The classic Rock was usually dressed in olive drab fatigues, with a .45 caliber Thompson submachine gun (although sometimes he is been shown using an M50 Reising instead) and .45 caliber Colt M1911A1 semi-automatic pistol as his armament. Oddly, the classic artwork almost always depicts Rock with an M-1 Garand cartridge belt which would be useless to him, as well as two belts of .50 caliber ammunition, which Rock considers lucky charms. Artists John Severin and Russ Heath sometimes attempted a more realistic portrayal of Rock's equipment, but the .50 caliber ammunition remained a personal trademark.
I like it!
