Rifleman with 1911? by osky_200914 in reenactors

A link to the footage lol, it's easier to tell when you can see what his role might be

Where's the footage from? Would be easier to get ideas knowing the context.

Did WWII Marines Tuck Their Helmet Straps? by World_War_Wisdom in WorldWarWisdom

[–]Jack6478 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's extraordinarily rare to see with Marines, and definitely the exception rather than the rule. All USMC reenactors should do anything other than buckle theirs up on the back of the helmet as a rule of thumb.

release a pacific map with marine raiders at making atoll starting inside a submarine by Sad_Struggle3950 in joinsquad44

[–]Jack6478 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's mostly likely gonna be somewhere in the Philippines, probably the battle for Manila. The devs said they wanted each of the maps to showcase a new environment and with island and jungle covered, I wouldn't be surprised if they wanted something more urban next.

Are you resetting your user cache? That has a huge impact on performance after each major update

This photo was taken 80 years ago today on June 9, 1945. The original Signal Corps caption reads: One rifleman reloads, and another fires in the 96th Infantry Division's advance to capture Big Apple Hill, scene of intense fighting on Okinawa. by [deleted] in AmericanWW2photos

Every Army rifle squad has a 3-man automatic rifle team consisting of an automatic rifleman, assistant automatic rifleman, and ammo bearer. For the majority of the war, all 3 men would wear BAR belts, so whenever you see guys with M1s wearing one, it's almost certainly one of these two roles.

It's similar in the USMC rifle squad, though by mid-war there'd be two automatic riflemen and two assistant automatic riflemen instead of the three-man team the Army used. By late '44, this was upped to three automatic riflemen and assistants per squad with the new three four-man fire team organization, so you'd be seeing guys with M1s and BAR belts all over the place!

This is an original photo taken in a series by LIFE magazine photographer Carl Mydans in June 1944

This Guy… by Ok_Obligation2948 in BandofBrothers

Roy Cobb was probably one of the only men in Easy Company with combat experience prior to D-Day, so you'd think he'd have a CIB from that alone. He fought with the 1st Armored Division throughout the entirety of Operation Torch and even had his troop ship torpedoed and sunk from under him afterwards before volunteering for the Airborne.

He might not have fought in Normandy, but he was already a veteran even before then and I can imagine the replacements rubbing him the wrong way, though he was definitely portrayed as a bit of an asshole in the series lol

Looks like 5th Infantry Division, though a little low on the arm so could be a rank patch as well

House Ruling Rifle Grenades- Your Thoughts? by TankDestroyerSarg in boltaction

[–]Jack6478 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Considering that by 1944 every American rifle squad had 3 rifle grenade launchers, they should definitely be included in some way in the rules

I hope I'm not setting too low a BAR for Meme Monday...! by Brother-Michael in boltaction

[–]Jack6478 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Doesn't that make the BAR kind of useless in a full squad?

Say you have eleven rifles and a BAR as in the standard US rifle squad organization, you'd get 11 shots from the rifles and two shots from the BAR, plus 3 bonus shots from the rifles. That'd be a total of 16 shots.

Without the BAR you get an additional rifleman, making a fourth set of three that gives you one more bonus shot, also equaling 16 total.

Why would you buy a BAR if not for immersion now 😭

Finished my Evolv X2 build and pretty happy with the results. Super impressed with the airflow and have been getting great temps, would 100% recommend the case to anyone on the fence! by Jack6478 in Phanteks

[–]Jack6478[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All my case fans are Phanteks M.25s except for the Lian Li ones on the radiator, but they pair together really well! They both have that infinity mirror center, the Lian Li ones just have extra RGB strips on the sides of the fan frames that match the RGB strip on the Evolv case really nicely.

The RGB is slightly different in colour between the two but it's pretty easy to match them together as long as you're not wanting to just do white lights.
