I was at the Fort Pierce Florida Navy Seal Museum today. Incredible tour, impressive display, well worth adding to ones bucket list. Depicts the Frogmen and their training & gear / weapons from WW2 up to the present. Difficult to get through without watering eyes and a renewed sense of Patriotism.
On display as part of the vast gun collection was a Colt New Service .44-40 Revolver, and it was listed as used in WW2. I was aware of .45 ACP revolvers being used in WW2, but never heard or read of the .44-40's use. Just wondering if any Historians knew if this was an oversight by Museum staff, or if this was documented elsewhere???
