Nicknamed “the Stinger”, Corporal Stein would take this improvised weapon to the sands and volcanic ash of Iwo Jima. While here, Corporal Stein would lead one relentless charge after another on Japanese pill boxes as he unleashed the Stinger which could fire at rates of 1200-1500 rounds per minute.
On 8 separate occasions, he would brave the deadly enemy fire in order to run back to the beach for more ammunition and on each occasion, he would pick up a wounded Marine to bring back with him.
For his actions on Iwo Jima, Corporal Tony Stein with the aid of his Stinger was awarded the Medal of Honor and a unique place in the history of the Corps ability to adapt in battle.

@@slslbbn4096 It's not the story. It's a story. simply put, in a capitalist society like the US, the companies that produce the tanks and planes get paid. They make a lot of money IF.....they produce products the armed branches are interested in. They can lose alot just trying. But someone has to make them. So, since everyone pitches in during such a war, the civilians contribute with money via increased taxes or whatever. They fund much of the war effort and those can fight, do. Just a different way of doing things as opposed to a dictatorship. So, while it seems there is plenty of corruption in most aspects of government, the principles upon which the government was originally founded are what everyone wants. Raise your hands if you prefer a dictatorship! see? no votes for 'tatership.

Literally the 'Frankengun' this weapon was a scavenged ANM2 .30 cal machinegun from the tail section of an SVD Dauntless Dive Bomber (US Navy), combined with the stock of the M1 Garand, an improvised firing mechanism (as the machinegun typically had the dual thumb trigger thus to be used with the Garand's pull trigger a special piece of equipment was needed), the carry handle and bipod of the M1918 Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR) and had a fire rate that rivaled the German MG42 but was only used in the Pacific Theatre. To the best of my knowledge, only one photo exists of the weapon. The weapon itself was destroyed or lost sometime around the war's end but I believe there were some copies made (about six) that were likewise used by US Marines and destroyed/dismantled at war's end. This weapon has been mentioned numerous times on shows like Lock 'n Load with R. Lee Ermy, Triggers: Weapons That Changed the World with Wil Willis, and was actually replicated on the TV series The Weapon Hunter hosted by Paul Shull and has even been made an obtainable weapon in Call of Duty: WWII (exclusively for the Zombies mode and Attack of the Undead DLC event apparently...)

The Stinger was actually authorized by the USMC. They had heard about the few already made, including some made in .50 cal, and that they had been highly successful. So they were given official blessings. And official research. The Stinger was finalized into a design by a team put together to find the best design. Two of the Marines' best weapon specialists were even reassigned solely to develop Stinger. It took about a year to do so and build a number of them. USMC leaders were so impressed, they ordered further work and got the resources together to actually convert a factory to produce the Stinger design they now had on hand. Factory conversion was nearing completion when the war ended and so the Stinger was discontinued. The Stinger was the better answer to the Browning M1919A4 Medium Machine Gun and M1918 Browning Automatic Rifle. The Marines noted more work was needed, but it was superior to the other pair. The base weapon was the M1919AN2 .30 caliber Browning Machine Gun. It was the weapon used by Tail Gunners on US Dive Bombers and Torpedo Bombers. Some aircraft also used them in the wings and cowlings as main weapons before the switch over to the larger .50 caliber Browning Heavy Machine Gun variant. That was the chief issue for overheating. They were meant for use in high speed aircraft at altitude. Thus they were at risk of overheating on the ground.

Amazing story and a great presentation. I can't imagine what it must have been like approaching a beach under fire in one of those landing craft. More great work on animating the guns, and I also like the look of the volcanic rock near the beginning of the video.

@duncancordray2054 2 жыл бұрын

I don’t know how hard animating is, but when you are portraying these soldiers they usually have a lot more equipment on them. Right now they look sorta bland, but yet again i don’t know how it works. Also i love your videos so keep it up

Thank you for not calling it the "Congressional" Medal of Honor. It's the Medal of Honor awarded by Congress and signed by the President, but that is the end of it.

I watched the video and I was amazed that you could take parts from three different weapons and make them into one lethal weapon. Another thing, like "Uncommon Chivalry" and the Yarnhub shorts, there was no cat in this video.

Rarely do these heroic stories have a happy ending. But we usually only hear the ones with happy endings. because they make the best movies. What an amazing guy and a true American hero. Thank you for sharing this with the world.
