Marine Corps Stories: LMGAS
A lieutenant colonel retells basics of the M16.
“We use keywords in the Corps, are we tracking?” The junior officers replied to Lieutenant Colonel Christopher T. Roswell with enthusiasm.
“One of those words you learned in OCS. LMGAS. This rifle that the enlisted primarily use goes a long way. The Lightweight Magazine fed Gas operated Shoulder-fired weapon should be ingrained in all of your psyches."
He turned to a board. “This is what we’re up against.” A picture of an AK-47 appeared on the screen. “It is a weapon that is durable and easy to fire.”
“A three-year-old could shoot it, sir!” Captain Marianne Capulet announced.
“That’s right.”

She grabbed a magazine and fanned herself, knowing that she expended more energy in that effort sitting still and letting the air conditioning do the job.

The picture looked as people had been replaced by blue aliens and she just watched her soap opera, void of extraterrestrials for this time.
