    I once spent a week researching the tumble of bullets fired from American rifles during the Vietnam war and the resultant bullet wounds. Why? Because someone said in a group setting “the M16 was introduced during the Korean war, not 'Nam.”

    By the way, make sure not to get shot by a 'Nam era M16 firing 5.56mm, as you’ll never get all the bullet fragments out.
