Meet the Stinger: The Homemade Light Machine Gun that Won Its Inventor the Medal of Honor

Amazing read. "Necessity truly is the mother of all invention" and with aircraft wrecked on the airfield maybe from ground looping and damage being limited to the air frame or wings, its easy to see some enterprising Marines grabbing the guns out of a wrecked aircraft. With a little improvising they turned that machine gun into an enemy suppressing ball of flame! Semper Fi Marines Hoorah!

Adapt and overcome!

Great weapons share brother Tony, as the old saying goes, necessiaty is the Mother of invention.
