Canuck, they usually had to turn them in to get there regular weapons when they got back in the rear they always went through a supply station and turned broken e-tools worn out equipment it was replaced with new equipment if it was available, most regular infantrymen would rather the M1 if they had to use a Thompson, if they trained for 2 yrs. with the M1 why would they ditch it for a weapon they aren't used to? When I was in the USMC, I carried an M16 for 3 yrs when I became a fire team leader I had to carry an M203/M16 I hated that damn weapon, I would've ditched that 203 in a sec in combat.
