The Automatic Rifleman is the base of fire for the US Infantry squad for the entirety of the war. The job of the Automatic Rifleman is to supress the enemy and provide the rest of the squad the time to maneuver. They were in high demand on the front, and US Infantry squads were always trying to procure more BAR’s to bolster their firepower.
