No, I didn't know how many bullets are in a bandoleer either. No, I can't remember how many clips were in my gun belt. Yes, I know I carried a million bandoleers all over France, Belgium, and Germany — but why would I count the bullets, they were free.
Hmmmmmm,
Sorry "been there" but surely as a trained soldier it was your job to know.
You life and your squad members lives depended on knowing your kit inside and out.
If you didn't know that does say much for your training.
So what unit were you with?

Really, you couldn't lift one of those?
Around 16 lb are you sure?
