Can you post a pic??? What is the significance of the Keith cartouche???

The M1 carbine has never much interested me (although I presently have three Enfield carbines)....But I did love my M14 in boot camp back in '69-'70 (last year Parris Island had recruits qualify with them, I believe)...And later built up an M1A from a used M14 'parts kit' and a semi-auto receiver...Really liked that; hated to part with it...
