The ace of spades in a deck is usuall and traditionally the highest ranking card. In myth and folklore the card was known as the "death card" It was a psychological weapon in the war. in vietnamese symoblism is a big thing so this card that symbolized death, was a deterrent and in some cases could scare away the enemy. The us card making company would fill orders of whole cartons of just the ace of spades. the crates were labeled "bicycle secret weapon". Some soldiers would paint the spade on their helmet or place the card in their helmet band as an anti-peace sign. This card increased troop moral and to them was a symbol of luck instead of despair. Also in war the hearts, diamonds, spades, and clubs, (the four suits in cards) were used as rankings of regiments for duties and patrols and posts.

During the Vietnam war. U.S ground troops through out the war chose the M-14 over the famous U.S M-16 due to that the M-14 was more accurate, it was easier to operate, and did not jam up like the M-16. The M-14 may be known to most of the students by the popular Call Of Duty Modern Warfare series and Black Ops. The M-14 came into service around the late 1950's possibly 1957. The weapon is the grandson of the famous M-1 Garand series, but the gun has different ammunition than the M-1 Garand. The M-1 Garand's ammunition is a 30 caliber weapon while the M-14 uses a 7.62 mm round. The M-14 also has a bi pod mount and when a scope is attached it is known as the M-21 sniper rifle which is also featured in the Call Of duty Modern Warfare series. The M-14 is semi automatic and usually holds whatever the clip can hold. I think the M-14 is a great Vietnam era weapon.
