[edit] Pronounce "Garand"
If I remember correctly, Hatcher stated this in his work, "Book of the Garand." I do not own a copy of this, but I did verify the accuracy of this a few months back as background for a forum question on this same subject. It's near the beginning of the book, but I don't have the time to search out the information right now.--Asams10 06:24, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
- My father said that he wasn't going to pronounce it like Garand wanted either. He's a Korea vet. Said he used the gun, and they called it the gur-AND, and that's the way it's going to stay. I've made an effort to use the correct pronunciation, but I too grew up saying it the common way.--Asams10 15:36, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
