Buried for 70 Years, Browning Machine Gun Roars to Life

This is a fantastic story (and very well detailed) for Veterans Day and a testament to the quality machining of the Brits during World War II.  After touring the Browning museum in Ogden, Utah this past August, I am not surprised that this recovered relic would fire after being buried since the Big One.  The quality and ingenuity of the Browing family is beyond belief.  If you ever get a chance to stop by the museum, do so.  You’ll never regret it.
