Obat 20 : South Korea OOB

I'm guessing these manuals are in the original Korea? Unfortunate for me

The only sources I have are before the shift to the M16, which suggest the usage of the BAR at squad level, which is where I assumed that it would be like the US progression of using automatic rifles instead of LMGs at squad level.

Yes, It's the original Korean FM. Sorry.

I checked squad firearm list which is before the shift to the M16, lmg only used in Platoon HQ and Weapons platoon. so these Rifle squads must have B.A.R for LMGs. I'll fix these problems.

Thanks for your comment.

Do you have a hard copy of the Korean FM or is it in an electronic format (.pdf or something similar)? If its in an electronic format, would it be possible for you to send it to me or otherwise make it available regardless? I realize I'm now very curious even if I probably wouldn't be able to understand 99% of it.

If you make it available I will be happy to translate, I need the practice.
Have a great day
