I was a Air Policeman in 1966 & 1967 and forced to retrain into Air transportation, Air freight specialist and sent to Viet Nam, As a Sky cop and as a pallet pusher in Viet Nam carried the Model 15. Our unit carried a 125 grain WC, it made a fine entry hole and had stopping power. It was a good in close firearm. I did some work that required me to be armed as I transported classified material I carried the M15. In Viet Nam several of us carried the M-15 in a tanker holster for ease of working inside the cargo bay of the C-123 and C-130 and from the seat of a forklift.
