Maybe it was crated when found. Story aside, the rifle is a gem!
In 1975 I was part of BLT 1-4 floating about from Vietnam to Subic. One of our collateral duties was to send an LST to Tinian to assess the idea of moving the 3rd Mar Div from Okinawa to there. At the time there was a good deal of pressure from the Okinawans to move the Marines out, which comes and goes even today. It was overgown with marijuana and the idea was abandoned.
But the B-29 runways were still there in perfect condition, I was told.
