extracted text (Extract Text): A RIFLE GRENADE, carrying a
wallop that makes it a baby broth-
er of the bazooka's rocket, is the
Army's latest antitank weapon.
Springfield rifles, shelved in favor
of the modern Garand, lob the
grenades in much the manner of
a mortar shell. Resting on one
knee, which he places behind the
gun butt, a soldier holds the bar-
rel in his left hand, puts his foot
in the sling and thrusts the gre-
nade over a special muzzle fitting
from which it is discharged.
