Re: sidearms"
I served a bit more than five years on active duty, most of it in the Armed Guard, and never fired a gun of any kind, probably because I was a radioman. After going to the Fleet, I was assigned from time to time in port to the quarterdeck and wore a sidearm, which was, as I recall, a .38 calibre revolver. I don't think I had any ammunition for it.
