The Marine rifle platoon bore the brunt of some of the hardest fighting and toughest living conditions of the entire war. The Marine esprit de corps was built on exhausting, comprehensive, training which prepared the rifleman well for the rigours of fighting in the jungles and islands of the Pacific. Equipped with a wide range of weapons such as the M1 Garand semi-automatic rifle or M1903 Springfield rifle and M1918 Browning automatic rifle (BAR), the platoon could spearhead an assault landing or dig in to hold ground with equal assurance.
The company machine-gun platoon provided M1919A4 .30 cal Browning light machine-guns or M1917A1 heavy machine-guns spread between the rifle platoons to cover the greatest possible field of fire. Battle-hardened Marines often fashioned ersatz carrying handles for the lighter M1919 so that it could be quickly redeployed even when the barrel was blistering hot from sustained firing.
