Greetings all,

A couple of questions on wepaons and ammo re USN.

Would LCM/LCVP/LCP (R) etc crews have been issued with personal, weapons? If so what type?

.30 and .50 Cal Ammo boxes - would they have been grey or OD or a mixture of both?

.30 and .50 cal Ammo belts - were these linked or the old canvas type?

Oh, and helmets, Neutral Grey or Medium Blue and any markings?

Cheers

Al
