  1. I know the designer, John Garand, did pronounce his name Gerund, but every WWII or Korean era GI pronounced it Gah-rand. As for Marsh Williams, he was brilliant, but almost always cantankerous in the extreme. Now tell the story of the AR15/M16 and the actual role Gene Stoner had in its development. Few people know he did not create the rifle; he developed its predecessor, the AR10. The role of scaling it down went to Jim Sullivan, now largely forgotten.
