As used in combat, how common was the drum, as opposed to the stick, magazine? Thanks for the post and the information, and please post the completed article when you finish it.

I have seen at least 2 WWII photographs that show a Thompson with a drum magazine, in a combat zone.
I was very surprised, as I thought that only the GI 'stick' magazines were used. I was obviously mistaken
I'm sorry to say I didn't save links to the 2 photos.
That sure is beautiful photo of an iconic piece of American firearms history!
