1918 B.A.R. | Tactical Rifleman
This video introduces the iconic 1918 Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR) and features historian CSM (Ret.) Rick Lamb. Lamb discusses the historical context and evolution of the BAR, starting from its World War I origins and concept. He emphasizes how military gear often lags behind initial conflict needs, leading to innovation. The video aims to be the next installment in a series exploring weapon systems of different US military eras, following previous episodes on the M-3 Grease Gun and M-1 Garand with a rifle-grenade launcher.
