Firearms safety training has been molded through Project Appleseed instructor training as well as NRA Range Safety Officer training. Movie armorer involvement began in 2010 with Memorial Day as an assistant armorer and has continued through COVID restrictions. Spot appearances as featured extra or minor roles has added to the overall production experience.

The Great War (2019)
Black Soldiers in WWI.

This film is certainly no joke but rather a tribute to the determination and sacrifices of those troops. Review the history.
To respond to another reviewer - This film was set for late 1918. BARs (Browning Automatic Rifles, M1918 BAR) were certainly in use by U.S. forces. ALL weapons used in this movie were appropriate for the time period. There were NO M1 Garands. The grenades were either WWI German stick grenades or their smaller egg grenades, which again are historically accurate. Many of the weapons were originals supplied by the WWI re-enactors who were extras.
