My father served in the Pacific in the Army's 2nd Engineer Special Brigade. An unusual unit which was authorized to wear the same am patch as British commandos. He saw combat on New Guinea, New Britain, and the Philippines. At different times he was issued an '03, Carbine, and a Garand. He preferred the '03.
I noted on the episode tonight the Marines had Carbines with the correct early features. Makes me wonder more why they showed them with '03A3's on Guadalcanal.
