I was not able to pass this test without viewing the accompanying 1917 "Manual of Military Training". Below is the list of questions with corresponding numbers in parentheses that match the numbers in the manual. Questions specific to the Krag is in Appendix A on page 26.

The answers start on page 165 in the manual.

BR, I think you got ahead of me already.

If this manual was written today the cover would be black and yellow and titled "Krag Jorgensen Rifles for Dummies". Maybe not. The manual actually covers a lot of topics for the infantry soldier and may be of more interest for those studying World War I.

I was surprised by the amount of times the magazine cut-off was turned on and off. And the use of the word "clip".
