Here is some of the specific information regarding the M1917A1 Heavy Machine Gun Section culled from three WWII USMC manuals. These three manuals used are the 1946 Marine Handbook, Weapons (Marine Infantry Battalion 1942) and The Organization of the Marine Infantry Regiment 1943) Great information for living history units who want to arrange a 1943 Heavy Machine Gun section for their unit.

WWII USMC Recruit Depot Camel Cigarettes Pack 4th of July
From the J. Ruffini collection, comes this amazing Marine Recruit 4th if July gift item from Parris Island. I've never seen anything quite like this over the years. It being a disposable item, I'm very sure not many of these have survived over the years. Thank you for sharing this item Mr. Ruffini.
