This is where I spent most of my time when we were moving. I had a .50 cal machine-gun, M-79 grenade launcher, an old ARVN M-16 and, a much older ARVN .45 cal pistol, plus about 800 rounds of .50 cal ammo, 3 quarts of motor oil for the .50 and a spare barrel. Also two flak jackets, ( one to sit on ), and a steel pot helmet for the head. The only part of the M113 that was steel was the shield in front of the TC. It was thick, heavy metal. The rest was aluminum and couldn't stop an AK47 round.
