Just watched episode 19 of The World at War and there was a clip of a German general surrendering what looked like a S&W revolver. Cuda been a 1917 45acp.

Any body else see that?

I'll bet it there was no reason at all why he carried it, other than he probably "just liked it". It was his enemy's gun, so like we wanted Lugers, he kept his that he was awarded.
