Over there, an M8 bayonet-always did the job. Long gone alas. In actuality I got more use out of my Boy Scout knife.

I carried the Camillus pilot's knife on my survival vest. The Buck folder in my chest pocket did most of the cutting. Regards, Clark
What's an M8 bayonet?
my uncle was in the 101st Airborne in Korea. Yeah, I know, the 101st didn't serve in Korea in an "official" capacity, but their were some 101st Airborne over there, my uncle being one of them. He carried his Dad's WWII era Navy Mk1 built by PAL that his Dad carried in WWII. I proudly have that knife now in my collection.
I didn't go active duty Air Force until 1979, but I carried an Air Force pilots survival knife by "Ontario".
